Gazing out,
Ball of fire
Climbs slowly
Up a wall
Of misty blues
And breathy pink.
Chilled air
Flirts…
A gentle graze
On bared flesh.
Silent stillness,
World on pause,
A moment
For deep breaths
And reflection.
A tuneless song
Trills out
From mothers nesting
In strong arms,
Of swaying branches…
Nature’s rocking chair.
Whistle floats up
As leaves chatter.
Orange sun
Shifts to yellow,
Burning up
The gentle fog,
Revealing…
A bright,
Shimmering
New day.
Love it! Beautiful Kitt! And really fits my mindset today. A new day
Go, LJ! A new day, a blank canvas…
Great poem! I wish I could write like you.
Aww, thanks. You’re sweet.
You have captured the very essence of a new day dawning..wonderful Kitt
Thank you!
Always love your poetry. Beautiful anthemn to dawn.
Thanks, Mae!
The still beauty if the morning, my favorite time of the day.
One of mine, too… A nice cup of coffee, a walk with the dogs, or just enjoying the peaceful silence by the pool as the world wakes up.
nice one…
Thank you.
Great imagery! I like ‘nature’s rocking chair’, wow.
Thank you! Nature can inspire some amazing thing for me… Today was my “stop & smell the roses” day when I walked my dogs…and with the birds chirping their little songs and branches swaying…and leaves brushing together, making the chattery sound…it all just came together.
I’m happy to see your poetry back, Kitt. You have a true gift.
Thanks, Sheri. It’s never fully gone…I just intersperse it with other things.
Beautiful! You’re very talented.
Thanks! Hope you’re loving your new job.
Oh, the job I love. The somewhat strange coworker hired the same day as me with sporadically greasy hair and the fact that no one on the floor I sit on speaks unless necessary? …That’s still up in the air. I also believe I may be the youngest person working at the company.
So it’s the awkward…learning workplace dynamics phase. Got ya. Glad you’re at least loving the job, if not the people.
Beautiful…both the picture and the words…
Thanks, Austin!
Perfect fit for how I felt when I got up today. Very nice.
Thanks!
Beautiful!
Thank you!

Kitt–discovered you commenting on THE RETURN OF THE MODERN PHILOSPHER’s blog, and have re-blogged this entry of yours to my own bythemightymumford.wordpress.com….with hopes you may find it worthwhile to visit some time. You are a real good poet in an area I’d like to improve in (describing nature, sunset/sunrise, weather, etc.). GOOD JOB!
Thank you! I have added you as a blog to follow. I appreciate your kind words.
I love this beautiful words, and what an image with that sky, thank you for sharing!
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
