Morning to Night
A Poem for the Prompt: Where the twilight meets the dawn
Stars gleam in the black of night
Diamonds on the necks of gods.
Burning sun rises in the morn.
Dawn meets twilight,
Steels the diamonds from the dark.
Gusty westerly winds
Blow through stands of last year’s cattail.
Fluffy seed pods billow up
On the blasts of warm dawn air.
Thousands of seeds glow pearly in the sun’s rays.
In the early hours of an April morning
A surprise snowfall arrived.
Snowflakes caught in spider webs
Hung suspended in the gossamer,
Rhinestones melting in the rising sun.
