Misty Morning
Sunlight shining through the clouds
To warm this dreary day
Taste of the misting rain upon my lips
Daffodils like gold begin to sway
I feel the breeze blow through my hair
And smell the morning dew
The only thing that is missing
Is me having you
I walk along this narrow path
The trees beginning to bud
Hoping that I can find you
As my shoes slosh in the mud
The tulips red like fire
Set my soul ablaze
As I continue searching
Afraid I’ve lost my way
Calling out your name
A bird returns my call
It makes me really sad to think
I’m alone after all

Sunlight shining (seeing) Daffodils like gold (metal)
Misting rain on my lips (tasting) Sunlight shining (fire)
Smell the morning dew (smelling) Misting rain (water)
Bird returns my call (hearing) Trees beginning to bud (earth)
Rain upon my lips (touching) Breeze blow through my hair (wind/ air)
