Trails of Sunlight

The wonder of the dawning sun
Is majestic to behold
Ribbons surrounding trees and cliffs
In tones of flame and gold

Here, dazzling beams illuminate
A passage  through  the sea
Coloring the radiant crest
In warm serenity

A gentle  time  to plead for hope
As quickly fades  its light
Where etched silhouettes blend and merge
Enkindling rise of night.
