Dew Kissed Morn

Sun peeks over eastern rim
giving clouds hanging mid heaven
spoiled cotton candy appearance
all that my eyes see before me
heavily dew kissed giving
sparkle to the very parched earth

The earth smelling freshly bathed
cleansed of any unwanted residue
refreshing tepid air flows slowly past
where I am sitting giving pleasant
thoughts of this dew kissed morn

Winged creatures take a
well earned rest waiting for
the sun to dry up heavens tears
for long and harsh summer has been

Confusing this untimely storm  
giving heat thriving blossoms
question on whether to stand tall
brightly adorned or go in to hiding
as onslaught of season approaches

First storms of the season are
welcomed friends but as time passes
soured the thought of another day
darkened and gray hoping the sun
will cycle without interruption

But for the moment I shall marvel
at the sheer beauty of this
dew kissed morn that Mother Nature
so graciously has given me

"spoiled cotton candy appearance"....

yes, I've seen those clouds!

should "weather" be "whether"[?] although, if not, I do like the play on words!

it should be "whether". . . but, I like the idea of it being "weather". . . like Sunshine said, a play on words. . .  

great job Cerenity, you're getting better with every line my friend. . .

(sigh) Oh my, dearest Cerenity, I too enjoy the refreshing and calm serenity of a beautiful dew-kissed morning! (smiles) Down here in Denver, it is very dry and hot during the summer, and I feel so happy when we have a break and I sit out on the front porch swing and breathe the beautiful summer rain air and see the mountains swim in the distance! (smiles) This is such a beautiful poem, sweet Cerenity, I always love your beautiful natural poems! You have such a beautiful heart, dear friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Cerenity, this is so beautiful.  I, too, love the "dew-kissed-morn".  In Michigan we have ALL kinds of weather and if you wait a minute, you get another kind.  I love it when it is all sparkley and shine-y.  ME
