Before the birds take flight, navy is barely pale blue.
Spring leaves glow, bidding goodbye to night. It’s time to grow and drink in the light.
Diamonds float on water as pale sunbeams rise. The treasure of the day has arrived.
A silent propeller pushes solitude forward. Into the bay, along the shore. Life reaches out with invisible hands.
The dome is so large, a heartbeat so small. Such is the world, a pale speck on a spectacular stage.
From one little place, waves cascade.
