CRIMSON SUNRISE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
crimson, scarlet, rose
sunrise hues slowly ascend
morning’s gentle start

rays of fiery gold
morning’s warmth upon my face
summer’s gentle grace

Dear Sara, You have such a gift for distilling beauty into just a few lines. Such a moment of peace and light. - Blessings, My Dear Sara, Daniel

Both the haikus are magnificent. With defty brush strokes and choosing the right hues from the pallet, you have drawn a beautiful painting of the morning sky. All the best dear Sara.

A lovely scene unfolds, Nature's brush paints soft delight, Whispers of the breeze. You've seized the splendor of dawn, most wondrously.
