Lofty

Dawn emerges from the mount
Ready for the climb of day
Across the spires of the sky
To soaring heights ascending
Swelling above beyond the clouds
And when it reaches the highest rise
Gently sinking slowly down
Back to earth from whence it sprouted

  4. Cool. Dawn as a sprout. The poem read as a rising and falling, naturally.

  9. Interesting perspective of the sun across our skies during the day as simply the journey of the dawn. A beautiful poem.

  11. I love the way this crescendoes and diminuendoes, the rise and fall of your words is beautiful.
