Early summer sunrise
Red morning skies
Violets lift their heads
To the awakening of the world
Dew bathes the morning grass
And the wind drapes around me
Like a silken shawl
The now-risen sun
Ushers in oppressing heat
Shade gives refuge to the
Weary souls beneath a
Canopy of leaves
Late now is the day
Shadows lengthened
Rested and strengthened
Crimson skies once again
Brings daylight to an end
And the cold now surrounds me
Turns my breath to fog
The darkness overcomes
My securities
The dimly lit reads
Give a path to follow
For our fading dreams
