Dancer Of Dawn

Chaps of white
glimmering in light
wrapped around faded leather

hugs tightly old iron
while steely eyes admire

a scene
seen,
in quiet admiration

this contrast
of pale cradling black
in back

of a slow sun

rising

riding the winds
of another highway day.

Teasingly Sol smiles
his blessings reign down

and, like shadows,
shimmering through trees


danseur d'aube
greets the day.

I did just fine until you started speaking Portugese at the end.
... and my chaps are tan and soft as butter
I loved it, Donna

"A scene seen" -

I love it when a poem contains two consecutive words with different meanings - sort of like a rhyme but immediate.

Very good poem.
