A wonderful moment



FROM MY FRONT PORCH


IT’S SIX IN THE MORNING


NIGHT’S SLOW GENTLE RETREAT


THE SUN’S RED SPHERE GLOWING


AS DARKNESS ADMITS DEFEAT


I SIT IN MY OLD CHAIR


AND WATCH NATURE PAINT


WITH FABULOUS FLAIR


DAWN’S BRILLIANT TAINT


THE MIST BURNS AWAY


IN THE VALLEY BELOW


DEW SPARKLES ON HAY


THE CAW OF A CROW


THE BREEZE COMES ALIVE


WITH THE INCOMING TIDE


TUMBLING WATER TIDAL BORE’S DRIVE


FRESH AND SALT WATER MEETING TO RIDE


THE EAGLES ON MORNING BREEZE SOAR


CIRCLING UP , UP AND AWAY


PIERCING EYES SEARCHING THE BOAR


FOR FROLICING SALMON AT PLAY


THIS STORY BOOK SCENE


UNFOLDS AT MY DOOR


THIS MOMENT SO SERENE


I COULD WISH FOR NO MORE…

Just how nice it is to get up early in the morning, I agree with what you wrote, Must be also nice to be near the ocean and see it too. I find it very relaxing only when I visit and cannot afford to live near it. But it is my thing. Nice poem too. My kind of writing and need it to survive my depression.
