Morning Wishes

~ Frigid winds of autumn whispers come this morning dark as night Drifting ‘loft the barren branches touching everything in sight Here I start this dawning journey chills now travel ‘long my skin Cheeks of red and blushing wonder as this new day does begin Cold invades my heavy jacket when the sun begins to rise Lavender and coral ribbons paint the frozen eastern skies Soon the heavens will surrender to a glowing amber hue Pastels drift the lone horizon softening the frosty view Still my thoughts all seem to wander past these shivers in my mind To my daily destination where my longing eyes will find Greetings sent of morning wishes on these artic days apart For I know within her message words will come to warm my heart ~

Ever the artist of words! Your palette set up first thing in the morning. I picture you with coffee in one hand and a wordsmithing brush in the other...the mornings your muse! Your palette only limited by God.

It sounds chilly in your corner of the world my friend but that ending makes it sounds as though you found some warmth to your day... I was greeted by Michael Myers at work today. With the creepy music playing... I think your morning sounds better. Love this Chris! You always paint the scenes so beautifully and share the beauty with us

It is chilly here this morning, actually more along the lines of COLD!!!! An unusual morning for us but not too bad when I have friends like you to bring the sun out for me. Thank you so much Sandy.
