Memory - Sunrise

What's Your Memory of Nature 5-18-26
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Memory - Sunrise

Touched by the breath of coral dawn
Morning paints stars in amber hues
Gossamer streaks like pink chiffon
Sing a love poem - my heart renewed.

Your entry was on the beauty of sunrise as well... and much better written than some of the top entries, Sam. I'd have placed yours much higher.

A lovely gem, very much so, Sam. (I see Kim also used 'lovely', lovely twice said is lovely wed to your pen's thread.)

Hi CayCay! Thank you so much. Truly each colorful morning sunrise is a precious "gem" - a gift wrapped in amber, a promise wrapped in light. Thank you for your "lovely" message. Sending you blessings of loveliness and beauty.

Dear sweet Sam, this is a lovely Quatrain. 'Coral dawn, amber hues, gossamer streaks, pink chiffon' - choicest word coinages! What more can be included in a single Quatrain! I am bathed in the beauty of your 'dawn'. Into my FAVE

Thank you so much, SO! I am humbled and so grateful for your encouraging words. And, yes, we do love to sing a love song through a morning poem. Morning truly is a moment in time that we capture and long to hold onto every time I experience it's wonder. Sending you blessings of amber mornings!
