Description

The morning slowly rises,

clothed 'neath shadows blue-grey.

Peeking through autumn's chill,

a patchwork quilt, her way.



Her breath, a ribboned edge,

smooth velvet-like appears,

whispers 'cross dark with light

blazing a trail, warmth sears.



Dawning flames spread pink hues,

stoking daylight's promise,

dreamy remnants, night's hope,

blendings mysterious.
