Spectacular Sunrise

When new sunrise wears its russet attire Young jasmines blaze through an inner fire; Heady is the mist with scent of flowers A perfume pervading cold morning hours: Beams cruising gently their lacquer aglow In December's pageant when dawn drifts low. Sweet the splendor of hours lifting the air While auroral carpet glints everywhere, Little moths fleeting where frosty waves curl To renew beginnings as dreams unfurl-- Afloat on a crest of life's promised rays Setting the stage for Midwinter Days. Joyfully, time breaths of hope for a while For lustrous sunshine my senses beguile! Best Rhyming Poem 2018 Contest for John Hamilton Re-entered 2/23/2018

How lovely this poem is Nette! I wouldn't want to be Kim. From what I have read so far, she will have a very difficult choice. Hoping you have a Happy New Year! Aloha, Connie : )
