Sunrise Thoughts

Musings on life ....

And as the distant orb begins to glow

The thoughts within my mind begin to flow

And gentle breezes stimulate my brain

As night now finally does wane

And nature’s beauty fills my sense and soul

A feeling that will always make me whole

The scudding clouds across an azure sky

The blossom as it drifts and softly flies

The cry of bleating lambs does usher Spring

A time when glorious greens begin to sing

The warmth as through the air the glorious Fohn

Helps Summer all its wonders now to hone

And then the vivid flash of Autumn’s leaves

As finally the weather beats the trees

And all the beauty that the Winter shows

Within its bleakness and its glistening snows

I'm listening to Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons" in my head as I read your poem again, Phil. Very well done.

What wondrous thoughts and feelings a sunrise can bring. A beautifully written poem about the four seasons . Cleverly done relating the death of night and the birth of day to the beginning cycle of each season. Death and birth the cycle of life.

great read.

Goodness, there is no doubt you love the spring and i sense you are looking forward to it now, though the poem is a year old. I envy you having thet time to be aware of the sunrises and sunsets as you are. I'd love to be so, but am too busy to stop sadly. Was up on Dunstable Downs ydy...couldn't believe it massive amounts of what looked like gossamer on the grass. Is that possible at this time of year? .
