Poetry: Sunrise

I've only seen the sunrise once.
It was beautiful and calm.
And as its rays stretched,
and touched the earth.
You could see it come to life.
There was solitude and peace,
then the silence began to be broken.
And from the mountain where I sat,
you could see as man got up,
that the serenity was suddenly spoiled.
The moment now was lost!
I've only seen the sunrise once.
It was beautiful and calm.
I'd love to witness it again,
but it starts so bloody early.

    A tropical drink horizon
    heralds the coming dawn
    shadows recede westward
    another twilight gone

    The City stands behind me

    by E. E. Raleigh

    Sweetly slanting tones bend through, each resplendent drop of dew,
    peering through them life does too, assume a sweeter slant.
