Her Place

As dawn's early mist rises
its wrapped lovingly with care
Blanketed in silence
its sheer beauty is rare.

Muted and glowing
the sun delicately peeks through
It's presence a heavenly
palette of pale earthly hues.

With the whispering wind
swaying amongst fragile limbs
It is transformed like no other
a melodic blissful hymn.

As a soft breeze caresses
the mist gently clears
It is here she has found
a serenity to hold dear.

A lovely gentle write. I didn't realize how many I did not leave comments on. It's a nice excuse to read them again.

A moment and place well captured. It took me to the top of a hill where I walk the dogs and can just see the sun coming over the Eastern horizon.

Such a gentle and calming read Lynn. You have used beautiful imagery to portray the dawning of the day. I see from reading through your poems that you were away from Poetry Soup for quite some time. I am so glad you came back. Fiona

I enjoyed giving this one another read. The title brought to mind a piece I wrote called "In my Place".
