A day in sunlight

a day in sunlight
seabirds dancing overhead 
cool breeze refreshes

early morning
awaiting dawn's grace
time for some tea

gigantic lilies 
at the edge of the sidewalk 
bathing in sunlight

upon these petals
this bee feasts upon nectar 
then, on to the next

through the sunlight 
colors burst forth 
ever so briefly

early morning rain
this gentle song sung to me
under the street light

another day
the halo proven
an illusion

after the rain 
a single blossom 
sunlight returns

dawn drifts through the trees
gently rousing the songbirds
early morning dew

as the blossoms fall
gently caressed by the rain
spring gradually fades
