Daniel Turner Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Sunrise

I watched the gloaming break in silent peace
Dark purple change to pink before my eyes
The bottoms of the clouds turned bright cerise
Which bled into the lake before sunrise
Then suddenly all wrapped in golden fleece
The morning sun joined in his masterpiece

Vivien Wade June 25, 2017 at 7:42 PM Lovely poem. I loved the line 'wrapped in golden fleece'. I'm at the age I rarely see a sunrise, bit living near the beach I see glorious sunsets, wrapped in golden fleece. Blessings, Vivien Daniel Turner June 26, 2017 at 9:08 AM Thank you Mrs Scarlett. I do love those sunrises and sunsets. There are so many different colors.
