Eyes Eastward

Eyes eastward
horizon still
pale light 
quivering
above dawn's rim...
Blink twice -- 
a majestic band
wondrous-red
mounts
o'er dewy rooftops
~ dawning
    of a day's creation

I was gong to write 'rewy dooftops' -- but then my dyslexia subsided. Whew! ~ Flow NohsreG

Gershon, I loved this exquisite description of the birth of a new day. The title is gripping as well. :)

Well, I can think of one thing better than a beautiful sunrise to start the day -- a Chris Green poem! Smiles, Gershon
