Caught In the Sun

Where dawn is born and clouds are spun
To clothe the sky in golden lace,
The sea ignites as currents chase
Soft morning light that's just begun  
To wake our love, caught in the sun.

Revisiting this one that you did so well with!! It almost sounds like it was in a contest I sponsored but I am thinking it was another Souper that did this particular topic. (what a bad memory I have!)

Awesome word pictures! In reply, I am homeschooled, so I really don't have majors, but I have studied literature and history since I was about 8. I doubt if I will ever stop. I like studying the different styles and subjects of writing, and the many customs and quirks of past civilizations. I like the Greeks too; I am amazed at how much they contributed to our modern way of life and government, while many think of them as a primitive culture. Maybe they watched less T.V. and used their minds. ;)
