Red Sun


Eyes feasting on bold color
against a waking dark sky,
clouds near tinged with bleeding hue,
the red sun rises

Deep in the midst of dawning views. A poet wakes the world. With phrasings touched with crimson hues. A pictures been unfurled. Good on ya mate. :) Hows that for some Minnesota Aussie. :)
