Sunrise Fashion

the mellow blush of sunrise 
seeps through the soft gray clouds 
trees appear in their green hoods 
love is in the air as doves flirt
birds go mad making throaty noises 
as they dip over the clear lake water
echoing sweet sounds of fresh life
yellows, oranges, blues burst in full attire 
as sunlight shines like diamonds 
patches of flowering grass trim the forest  
in a circle of colors
slumbering animals whisper
to the joy as the new day appears
in the radiant look that nature wears
