Haiku - sunrise

Dark fades to pink
becomes orange and red
- day breaks blue.

  3. I really like this haiku--I'd never thought about the day as being a transition between so many different colors.

    I've also been enjoying scrolling through all of your other lovely poetry!

  13. Thanks for all your comments. This time of the year is lovely for beuatiful sunrises and sunsets, sometimes it almost seems as though the day is just one long sunrise...

    Novel Nymph, I'm not actually nearly as crafty as I'd like to be (or as you think I am?)....

    Jblack - I'm glad you think no photo needed but I would love to be able to capture sunrises like this one on camera....

    Cate - thanks for taking the time to scroll through all my poetry, its nice to know that the older poems aren't lost....

    Rethabile - glad you think this is a good ku, I keep trying....

  17. It is happens so slowly and subtly that we are always surprised when it inevitably happens.
