February bud
igniting sky with red glow
then melting darkness
February bud
igniting sky with red glow
then melting darkness
hazard lights flashing
a birder stops to admire
hawks bathing in dawn
lightning to the North
geese veering to avoid storm’s path
Eastern sky glows red
pushing back the night
string of pearls lighting the way
the splendor of dawn
while the world yet sleeps
sitting alone in stillness
robin announces dawn
