I feel the deep breath that waits for soft dawn With eyes towards the twilight of morning's rise They lay in comfort as a nurtured fawn And welcome mists of light from night's demise Purple skies of dawn come with a warning Sailor's call changing red before a storm Lucid raindrops fall from clouds adorning For this day of beauty, I will not mourn Chasm of sky and I will merge as one To find joy in another day of breath I'll fly with soulful wings beneath the sun And live a peaceful life before my death Each dawn the sunrise wears a colored veil To my spirit, this is the Holy Grail 2/14/18 contest Sunrise and Sunset note...sailor's warning red at night sailor's delight red in the morning, sailor take warning purple turns red before the dawn
