Do you ever see The long marmalade fingers reach across the edge of the earth lilt with pink abandon the sun upon its pedestal deliberate yet majestic as it paints across your lover's face fluttering sleepy eyes awake towards your gaze always seeming to be the first time |

'long marmalade fingers', reminds me of one of my favorite lines ever 'gash gold vermillion' - Gerard Manley Hopkins. beautiful thanks for the morning nudge. |

A very well-described dawn! And 'always seeming to be the first time' also seems to be a dawn in itself, as each sunrise brings forth a new day. The first of each day. _,,,^.^,,,_ |

I like the idea of looking for something fresh every morning, like how you broke up the meter but would tailor it here and there to get a better flow...this is just a thought as for eample the third to last stanza and the last might be adjusted so that the meters are closer.Very well done! |

(sigh) Soooooooooo beautiful, sweet Regina, your words always paint such heavenly visions! (sigh) You are soooooooo romantic, sweet friend, this had me dreaming ever so much of staring into my lovers eyes as the rosewood sunrise skies lathered upon us all. (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is sooooooooo beautiful! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
