A Dawn Arrives Bearing Message of Heart

A dawn arrives bearing message of heart
And pleads with the sun to disperse the fog
And engages the sky to paint its horizon
In orange and pink with shades of crimson

Not much time it has to say what it wants
Before it must leave and pass the baton,
Regret's written in the missive morn carries:
Patient he must be to realize his dream

Confused is he for the words don't match
The celebration he sees in beaming skyline
Evoked by the goodbye of parting aurora
Encoding her passions on rising golden arc

Meet him she will but not till the evening
Not till the sunset elaborates her theme
Painting on blue tapestry lavender imprints
As she readies to decode what romance is

This lovely poem vividly conveys its theme of romance--of which the speaker is not completely confident. Janice

"Patient he must be to realize his dream" Good things come to those who wait. Sometimes moments are tangled, emotions become stirred. "Encoding her passions on rising golden arc, to decode what romance is" The end will be an ever after. :) I am just guessing. This is beautiful and tender. ~ Brandy
