Famished native trees,
lunging for the golden yolk,
engulf the sunshine.

Enlighten

Drawing up the blinds,
lets in the first light of day:
sun after a storm.

A small battalion
marching past general sun;
heavy-hearted clouds.

Greeting

Pink-headed grasses,
waking up to greet the sun,
nod at passers-by.

Lingering

Photo of the bright orange of the sun, as it rises, with the photo capturing the silhouettes of two large trees on either side of the frame.

Wine-stained table cloth;
so vibrantly hungover:
sunrise in winter.
