Good morning from the lakeside deck ~

shadowleavesonlakeann

emerging sun lights up the sky

colors are a’changing

on its way up to shine

streaming across the woodlands

rising before it’s really known

moving from blues to golds

Oh~ the glory shines

as some traveler

stopping by

but not yet really staying

morning light moves downward into the hallows

filling the mighty earth’s shadowy ground

such a soft gentle light

and the air

is summertime warm

sometimes I find

it’s hope talking to me

morning rising

TREE STAND

I sit high in a tree stand

if I was a child again

I would climb these old tree limbs

and never tire of being here

now I am old

as I sit here on my redwood deck

up high in the trees ~ so high

I can touch the sky

My morning write ~

Official sunrise 5:58 am

Bear Cove on Lake Ann

2nd sunrise 6:32 am

Out of the northern sky

Rises this morning’s second sunrise

Over the Ozarks’ Bear Hollow Ridge

What magic is this?

Another summer solstice is coming ~

Enveloped already stamped and signed

With air special delivery

Costs borne & money paid

Oh, the beauty & the peace of earth’s promised rising sun ~ twice!
