Colors of Dawn


Colors of Dawn
       by Amy Swanson

Peach-gold tones shimmer
       -- mist from twilight disappears
kiss of sun peeks through
        swirls of pink and lavender
        bids a gentle good morning

    Hello my kindred friend. *^_^* You paint such a fabulous and pretty picture here. I love colors in poems. Almost as much as I do chocolate. LOL Wonderful. The sun has been shining here and it is making me come slowly out of my shell. :) :) Love your crabby friend swishing her lion tail in happiness.
