Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of people asleep dreaming

Dowsed

As a red fireball sun rises
Setting pine silhouettes ablaze
A damp coolness really disguises
The warmth soon to flow from gold rays

Doves' cooing entertains quiet
Roosters excitedly invite
A welcome to day's varied diet
Another gift from God's good insight

All of nature seems excited
Another day of love to the fill
While mankind lingers benighted
His dreams dowsed mostly unfulfilled
