Notes About The Poem

Reveille

tall thin and graceful
palm trees on a white sand beach
reach for orange skies

the day's elegance
is visible in a breeze
along beauty's path

white crested blue waves
ever searching like the wind
in a restless world

sun sits on the sea
in the cool tangerine hours
birds begin to sing

The first haiku reminds me of ballet. Lovely images, dear Evelyn!

Once again Evelyn, your poetry is so visual, one can feel the words, and the images wonderful.
