When I look at you

When I look at you

A Poem by willweb

~


By dawning light

I see so many

wondrous things

before my eyes

 

A rising sun

of golden glow

on amber clouds

in early skies

 

A morning glory

waking up

to greet the day

in shades of blue

 

A breeze now swaying

through the leaves,

an emerald lawn

of glistened dew

 

A butterfly

in happy flight

enjoying nectar

fresh and free

 

A robin tending

to her young,

a squirrel

and a bumble bee

 

Of all the things

that I may see

which come alive

my morning view

 

My favorite site

will always be

the beauty when

I look at you

Not too sure about that anymore but I am glad you enjoyed this my friend. Thanks so much Soren.
Really enjoyed the layout of short stanzas here will and the rhyme too. Wonderful imagery of the natural environment. That is a bonus in my book. Happy Thursday.

Happy Thursday Chris. Thank you so much.
This one is a reminder to be aware of the beauties of life. A catalogue of attractive sights greets the speaker's eyes as he awakens in the dawn's early light. Why in hell does dawn have to come so early?

a beautiful morning start to the day.... you mention so many awakenings of nature...and nothing compares to your love...so many vivid images of the sun, the birds,the morning dew set upon all that is part of the earth...but the best of all these wonders is your love for a special person.....
So lovely Will, amazing choice of words that just flow together.

That sounds like a pretty damn good start to any day to me. It reminds me of why I get up at silly o'clock in the morning to watch the day begin from my kitchen window, with coffee in hand and at least 90 minutes of "me time."
I've seen owls in flight, deer mid ramble and even a squirrel who I'm sure was playing the mission impossible theme tune as they took the most acrobatic of ways for their morning nuts n berries.
Well, it's better than putting on the news 😊
