Sun's Rise

When cometh the sun upon the mornings dew The birds will chirp in harmonious pure delight As it raises and casts shadow then on the earth We welcome the dawn so to let go of the night The birds will chirp in harmonious pure delight Serenading us as we share in a morning’s kiss We welcome the dawn so to let go of the night We recognize it well for its beauty and its bliss Serenading us as we share in a morning’s kiss We delight in the sounds that play for us two We recognize it well for its beauty and its bliss As we welcome each other as we so often do We delight in the sounds that play for us two While we take each other into a tight embrace As we welcome each other as we so often do I kiss you tenderly as I stare into your face While we take each other into a tight embrace The sun tilts its head, blushing from the view I kiss you tenderly as I stare into your face As the sun rises, I shall make love with you The sun tilts its head, blushing from the view As it raises and casts shadow then on the earth As the sun rises, I shall make love with you When cometh the sun upon the mornings dew

Hi Michael, this is such a beautifully flowing poem, such tenderness and love shines through! Thank you for the very kind comments and inspirational thoughts you left on my poetry. 9-11 was terrible... it is nothing short of miraculous that you survived it. I'm so sorry about your brother and dad, I know that was so hard to go through. This poem sings of life to me... you have written it wonderfully and joyfully. Here's to life. :) Blessings, Amy.

Fabulous, Goodness how could you write such a complicated style of poetry. Am speechless, beautifully written full of romance and imagery. Will move onto a new style myself when I have 20 Haikus written. Déirdre

Valant attempt at very difficult form. I and too ignorant of the form to say much in this regard yet I would preferr (comes) to (cometh) being more forcefully in the moment yet still maintaining the antiquated feel. Lovely love poem! Light & Love Debbie Guzzi
