It dawns on creation
I watch 
As wispy clouds 
Dust the pre-dawn sky
With grey

Suddenly 
A splash of pink
Announces an expected event

The pink turns
Into soft yellow 
And gold begins to gild
The clouds

Brilliant gold 
Encasing several yellow shapes 
While bright red
And orange 
Spread to clouds 
Seemingly a distant 
Ways off

Now the gilding subsides 
Light starts to illuminate
The sky
And the eye 
Of the sky
Starts creeping high

Brighter 
And brighter
Welcoming
The new day
