SUNRISE
by Megan Willome
It’s disgraceful
All this color
Splattered
Pink flung
Purple creeping
Then orange
Why orange?
The clouds grey as the sun puts on bright clothes
Who wastes color like this?
Flinging beauty willy-nilly
As if everyone would see this sunrise
***********************************
Don’t waste His color!
I got an email from Megan last week. She wrote,
“I thought I’d share with you this poem that I started at Laity. When I came back to it, I decided to arrange it Sandy-style.”
I never thought of myself as having a style.
What a precious, beautiful gift.
Thank you, my sweet friend. I will be framing this for my wall.

This makes me smile. Two of my favorite people all in one place. And the sunrise too. So much grace.
Lyla Lindquist says
Style. You both have it. All your own.
This is beautiful, in all kinds of ways.
Patricia says

the poem so very fun, written in such a loving, playful way…

Hugs to both of you.

My favorite time of day is sunrise. I am always up several hours before, reading my devotions and enjoying a couple cups of coffee. I try never to let a sunrise be wasted.
Beautiful poem and photograph. Makes one think, ponder, and treasure.
