Medallion Hues

An aria of dawn breaks, I’m at ease,
           above the sapphirine skies sunbeams glow.
Morn rises in the east as night does cease,
       stardust fades into warm light rays below. 

          Heaven’s eyes open with pure affection, 
fervor delight with generous ardor.
   With God’s annum I’ve made a connection, 
something to treasure; a peace I adore. 

     Radiant tones of tangerine and blues,
sunlit day stars twinkle with emotion.
          Pallets of deep splendored medallion hues,
  my heart rests in ravishing devotion. 

For there's nothing like basking in the sun,
awaiting eventide when the day's done.

I like the random spacing of the start of lines, rather moving like a sunrise. Color-filled with medallion hues.
