As the Sun Winks

On the cold of an early day... Mist hoovers atop low grass I stand with chilled toes... With only my head above the rooftop As the sun winks rising It bakes my face, to comfort A feeling of warmth warms my bod... As I watch the moon fade I close my eyes and tilt my head slightly back Then, I think to myself... Such a beautiful, wonderful morning Then, I look down...and the mist is gone

Sunrise is always beautiful, but in Malta it is very short lived.
