Sun rising casts red against gray Those wispy cobalt streaks Trying to keep the sun at bay While roosters crow across the creek A jet leaves its exhaust behind White against a blue sky Such a clear blue this morn~magic For poet's aging eyes The clouds are supposed to bring rain Water in the makin' A dampness in the air surrounds But out here joy in the takin' Cocoon wrapped waits for metamorphosis Surrounded by His love As the clouds slowly change and move Entertained from above The mood disturbed by man's noise Closed eyes against the world The dove's voice begins to sooth Then tires begin to whorl As a bumblebee seeks a meal Inside begonia's bud The sun slowly slips up higher Now in middled of sun's flood Life's duties call out come inside Where waits a flowing tide Thank you, God, for time on the porch For Your love in which I hide
