velvet

dusk arising

 

 

 

In the way that velvet excites
with its touch on the back of my hand
now mother nature excites my eyes
with velvet hues of boiling mercurial eastern pink scarfs
melding through lilac and purple blue ribbons
to golden crushed orange shades
draped beneath pregnant skies of morning blue
where now erupts the bright dazzling golden globe of life
as i behold the birth of magnificent dawn

        I rarely get to see the dawn nowdays even though its a late starter in winter, its not as late a starter as i have become in my lazy lockdown immunesuppressed hiding away.

              When a beautiful dawn is seen its poetically inspiring for us poets to have a go at. I'm sure there are many better descriptions of the birth of the brand new day and I'd do it differently next try. Thank you Garth.
