A Rainy Night's Sunrise

A watercolor sky 
at Dawn-washed salmon, and light 
lemon hues. The colors 

are reflections,
in a lone fresh puddle shaped 
like a winding stream; 

in the shiny streets;
the gleam of the cars of greys
and deep Twilight blues.

Spring in her charming
ways, sprouts lime-green grasses
that in early Autumn

will be a sun faded
shade of chartreuse, in overgrown
fields, or farmlands bowed 

to a coral sky.
And on shores, the evening
captivates the sea

with daubs of lilac 
and saffron tints, the sunlight
a pallette of Summers..

And a crimson light
winks through the lithe fingers
of the watchful trees 

aligned aside the town-
houses with tangerine shades,
lifted in the 'Morn.

A distant harbor
is a watermelon burst,
and warm buttercup hues.

And aquamarine 
scrubs with lavender gloves
cup a lilac dusk.
