Morning Horizons

The love of my soul...comes after I pray, I thank the Lord...for the start of each day. My journey of peace...comes after I yawn, Observing the fields...as night is withdrawn. And watching the fog...ascend from the limbs, To the sound of grace...as birds chirp their hymns. The symphonic quivers...of rustling leaves, As the romantic wind...kisses the trees. The golden dawn...beaming bold shards of light, Lighting the path...for the birds to take flight. While the brook meditates...easing its rage, As the pallid clouds dance...on their blue stage. I praise God...after seeing the bison, And thank Him...for these morning horizons.

All the praise to God Almighty who created everything for which we feel the quality of being worthy as his creation. A very nice poem to welcome each day by thanking Him for all the blessings He has done. (^_^) Noel.

I think couplets are a great form of poetry, great imagery of birds, trees, leaves , horizon here after you give that first yawn, must leave near the coast. Was delighted to get a placement in your Haiku competition, they are so absorbing and such fun. Regards: Deirdre
