15 Breathtaking Texas Sunrises That Will Leave You Speechless

Poet's Note: Since this contest was 'any form, any theme,' I chose to write a Diamante, one Kimo, followed with an ending Monoku on the theme "Sunrise/Sunset."

Diamante/Kimo/Monoku

sunrise early, brilliant waking, beginning, captivating morning, brightness, darkness, evening sleeping, ending, mesmerizing late, dim sunset lavender sunrise brings inspiration fiery sunset, skyward hearth brings warm restoration time unchangeable~it is there at the end as it was at the start
