Masterpiece Setting

Watching the crescent moon slowly descend Falling further down into the earth Illuminating the land with evening stars Setting the scenery for the morning rise Brilliant ball of fire slowly rising The stars seem to surrender to its beauty Rays of orange and red streak across the sky Like fingers reaching across the early morning blue The song of the day beginning As the robin brings forth her orchestra Cardinal Red, Jays of blue, A small beauty of yellow gold and the hawk sounds its mighty cry Soft maple trees sway to the rhythm Lavender colored lilacs add their essence of peace Beauty adorns the rose as her petals open to feel the warmth of the morn Tenderly she opens releasing the way for a honey bee My eyes captivated by this portrait of nature Breathless for the moment I give thanks to the artist And become absorbed into his works
