Crystal Clear Drops

Crystal-clear drops of sparkling dew glint, as day greets the rising sun. And a sky of vergining blue: affirming that the night is through injects color where there was none: for a new day has just begun. Jewels of early morning mist, glistening dewdrops soon appear. And though we're aware they exist, these gems are easily dismissed. For clinging to plants, moister kissed, they tend to quickly disappear. But where tiny droplets amass, they glint like shards of liquid glass. And like the tide that ebbs and flows, Dawn's breaking light soon comes and goes. While the dewdrops tickle your toes when you walk barefoot through the grass.

Dear Emile your gifted pen spills a rhyming beauty rich with imagery and metaphor. Coincidently, I just posted a poem for this contest too, that utilizes the same rhymes (mist/exist) in my second stanza.. What's that saying about great minds..? Best wishes for a win and warmest wishes for you, my friend.. ~Susan

Another finely-executed poem from the pen of a master poet. I loved your take on the dewdrop, Emile. For me this was one of the more difficult writes. Best wishes in Angel's contest.
