We had such a beautiful sunrise this morning. It always seems like, after bad storms pass through, we always get a beautiful sunrise the following day. So I wrote this haiku to encapsulate the experience.
Nighttime surrenders
Vibrant light beams cut the dark
Sun blooms the new day
Let me know what you think!
Thanks for reading!

I wish I took that picture. It is beautiful. It was taken by Image by Lars_Nissen from Pixabay. The sunrise this morning, actually the last two mornings, has been breathtaking. I didn’t have a camera to take a picture, so I just soaked in the moment, hoping I’d be able to articulate it later.

Sorry…I can not see the discription below. Take your smartphone. Click a picture. Write a poem on it. Maybe it’ll be an interesting experience for you. Pixabay is the best place for pictures.

That’s a beautiful picture, almost like a fantasy. I wonder how early one has to get up in order to see this sunrise.

Thank you! Glad you like it. You are lucky to have captured those moments! Every time there is a beautiful sunrise or sunset, I am without a camera or phone. It is all about timing, I suppose. I’ll have to be patient; I’ll get a pic one of these days!

It’s captivating. Leaves room for the imagination of a new day and new beginning. I also think about day and night as a state of the human spirit.
