Water creeps over
The surface of a pier
Lending it
The appearance
Of a great black whale
Basking in the shallows

Golden sunrise sparkles
On the glass planes
Of distant shores
And I begin
A most unusual journey

It really is a brilliant view
Which, somehow falls
Beyond my grasp

Bobble hats glide through the morning air
While noses run and sniff

And then
All is quiet

I softly, methodically dance
Through the daze, the maze
Of my morning

As fellow voyagers
Struggle
To find their way

The sun
Perfectly golden
Utterly invincible
Arises

Nothing could approach it
Or ever destroy it
Except
Itself

My sun
My heart
Waits

Will it burn brightly?
Or slowly suffocate?
