Image result for pictures of beautiful late summer magenta sunrises with crepe myrtle

Sunrise on Swift Creek starts a new day The sun is etching magenta 'pon a misty sky And fog settling low 'pon the ground will stay Changing in the sky a red giant ball shows its dye I wonder if old saying will come true and I sigh Mankind hasn't made much of an arising yet Down where lilacs once bloomed in years gone by But doves awaken from slumber still sing my pet They cajole weary whip-poor-will where sun and earth edify To settle in the brush and quietly lie Down where fuchsia crepe myrtle blooms are open Enjoying the heat of end of a summer's day There's beauty against even the coyotes' den As turmoil goes on, guitar music stops, places decay Dear Lord, let me praise You, and constantly pray
