Day Light

Sunrise…
push against the lightest misty rain
off to the west,
a rainbow unfolding
to grace the dawning.

Sunlight… 
strike across the land below the clouds
gilding treetops;
Balloons rise like gems against
a steel-blue lowering sky.
 
Sunset…
flame upon the sky, rose-gold
upon the rising moon
then fade and leave the sky
to the bright and wandering stars.
