Dawn In the Pond

Coots sleepily dabble in a smudge of water. Wisp-wings waft on a surface mist. Dipping ducks, necks tucked into the half-light. watch muddy shadows dive under mounds of stalky flotsam. Vista’s gather to paint their levees of light. A slight uplift opens in a drape of sky. Dawn emerges through reflection, through liquid eyes, a looking-glass sun swims deep-up from above.
