D is for




D Is for Dawn

Aurora mixing pigments,
Titanium, cobalt, ivory black.

Coattails of the night,
Pulling possibility
Like a banner.

Revelation: Tree come into Leaf,
Mountain against Sky.

It is forgiveness and redemption,
Scattered second chances
Like the stars.

  2. D is for delight - but you've lost me on the question of outside/inside, perhaps...

    1. Sorry to be obscure. D is for Dawn...new day. It's a perfect time to let the inside reflect the out.
