Love Hurts

 

Morning Miracle

  

Awaken the dawn

first break of day.

Vivid hues hasten

ebon darkness away.

Golden Sun ascends

into an eastern sky,

chases after the Moon,

a silver maiden grown shy.

Standing still, watching,

I'm silenced by awe.

This morning miracle shimmers

orange, a radiant round ball.

I raise camera's lens,

focus, then pray

I'll capture the vision

bedazzled eyes witness today.

Autumn Prayer

Before I close weary eyes to sleep,

At life's photos I chance to peek

one picture captured, an icy view,

The mind conjures shivers, fingers turning blue.

A final shudder, then skyward I say...

Happy dreams spin my darkest hours away,

I pray Autumn lingers, keeping Winter at bay.
