Dawn The stars are still shining bright as the moon slowly slips away, preparing for it's slumber as the sun comes out to play. One by one the stars go out like candles snuffed by an unseen hand, but instead of darkness, the sun comes up, spreading colour across the land. The changes of each dawn hold me spellbound with their charms as the sun lights up my world and cradles it in it's arms. |

..."the moon slowly slips away, preparing for it's slumber" Hello, Dee, and a very warm welcome to you. This poem is so nice, especially the image of the moon, slipping slowly away to slumber. Just wonderful. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Dee~ Welcome to Passions. Your poem depicts a lovely view at evening closing and dawn beginning. I particularly enjoyed your reference to the stars being snuffed out one by one. Cleverly done. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
