~~~


a new month
dawns in subtle colors
sky stippled
slate grey in the vast deep
but the horizon
anouncing the glory of the sun
a pastel dream of
lilac ashes and peach lavender
the light barely touching
the bottoms of the clouds with
masterful brushstrokes

~~~

mesquite tree's
leaves and delicate twigs
a hunter green foreground
like a world of
pointulistic branching corals
against the air
dappled and breathing
like the side of a great stallion
grazing peaceful
but within moments ready
to canter into
a new day
