Apricot Morning ~*Marge Tindal*~ Out across the break of morn an apricot sky in glowing adorn rose upon my serenity with just a tinge of 'wait for me'~ Shedding gentle shafts of light she had gathered through the night Sharing the shades of her palette hues as she came swiftly into my view~ Soft the touch of gentle sun when upon a morn begun lays in colors resplendently spread across the woodsey forest beds~ Ah, tis beauty beyond the word of poets waiting to be heard She pirouettes in fervored dancing then out across the meadow goes prancing~ That she would come to flavor my morn with apricot hues of mellowing adorn affirms to me that it's awfully nice to rise before the cock crows thrice~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Those cotton pickin' roosters....they never are on time so that we can see those apricot morns..... Love the pic, so fitting... You made hungry for apricots......and sunrises... |

So very enchanting, Marge... I should probably get up earlier...I always miss sunrise because I don't do mornings...but you have given me a reason to wake up early now. Thank you! ~ morning hugs Lyra |

Ah, tis beauty beyond the word of poets waiting to be heard Make that MOST poets, dear lady... for while describing a sunrise adequately is beyond most of us, you've painted a picture with your pen that rivals what the camera captured. *S* Absolutely beautiful!!! *S* |

Not sure which is better...the poet, or the gift she found.... perhaps it is just a marriage made right.... |

Ah, tis beauty beyond the word of poets waiting to be heard She pirouettes in fervored dancing then out across the meadow goes prancing~ ====================================== This verse alone captures the beauty in it's own right but tie it together with your entire piece and you have a beautiful start to any day. |
