Following on from last week’s Sunset blog, I thought I’d share Sunrise with you.
I’ll let you in on a little secret. I watch the sun rise more or less every day at my favourite beach in the USA thanks to the talents of several photographers and the wonders of Facebook.
Those few moments of calm, watching the sky light up and the waves wash in provide a precious moment of tranquility.
One day, when the time is right and the planets align, I will sit on that beach and watch that sunrise for myself. Until then, this short poem inspired by those wonderful videos and photos will need to suffice.
Sitting on the soft cool sand waiting watching
Until the sun crests the horizon to the east
Never tiring of the colours of a new day
Reflecting on the past
Imagining the future
Seeking solace in the early morning calm
Emptying my mind of past pain and heartache
Choosing a photo to accompany this blog was hard. There are so many stunning ones to choose from.
