Beautiful Day

Awake... my first breath in the quiet of an April dawn becomes a halted gasp, caught and hung in mid air A warm, silent smile deepens as eyes are drawn toward the distant horizon where the face of the sun rising Veiled by misty, morning dew spreads its warmth through dense morning haze across skies perfectly inked in gold and raspberry hues, making a promise of a beautiful day. ~*~ 4/14/14

Today is quite cloudy here but your words gave sunshine were little existed before! Your line about morning dew. Reminded me of a line I wrote my wife ten years ago. "My precious darling I wait for you like the thirsty grass for the morning dew." I believe I've posted that poem here a couple days ago. Very nice presentation and I know your talent will continue to grow!

That line is here in my poem - A Daydream ending lines are -- Those parting verses you so faithfully read to me were sweet kisses that remind me of your parting plea That I live to return to faithfully, happily marry you as you wait like the thirsty grass for the early morning dew...Robert L.

Wow, Robert! That line written for your wife is "to die for" !! I'd love to read the whole poem if you'd let me know what the title is. Thank you for reading this and for your very kind comment. It was partly cloudy here too...we've had our share of the rain also.
