Cloudy Sunrise

An apricot sunrise casts purple against the cloudy sky. The roosters crow as though their effort will force the clouds to go away. All the bird species ex- citedly sing happy tunes. the joy they seem to express at the opening of spring is multiplied many times. Their songs echo back and forth. oppressive gray pushes against the sun.. mourning doves silent

You must have great appreciation for the natural world since you live in a rural area, I do see some nice birds NYC but the lights block the stars at night, I am going to look up this form after I make this comment. Excellent work here! Peace & Love Matthew Anish

The Wind Listeth Where It Will, And We Not Knowing Whence It Comes Or Where It Goes ? Spirit, Is As Such...One Moment We Grasp A Feeling Profound, The Next, Tis Hard Pressed To Find This Beauty Amid These Ruins So To Speak....Perhaps Such Is Why All Creation Groans While Waiting For, 'The True Sunrise!' Yet, We Are Reminded When Finding A Jewel That In You, Sara, Yes These Remnants Their Treasures Remain: Sustaining Us Unto The Glorious Of Glory's Day....Love, Jeremy
