morning’s silhouettes

morning’s silhouettes
stand
against a backdrop
of crimson, azure

tatted leaves
form lacy fronds
from blackened limbs

fowl flit
in rhythmic waves
steeples
spire crosses
adoring the heavens

utility poles
echo their praise
east and west
against the grays
that form
from sun’s sweet rise

a golden glimmer
rises
dousing the stars
from sight
as dawning brings
and end to
night

while
silhouettes
slowly capture
color for the day

time to pray

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

To be read in a moment of silence--and awe!
