Plane

Photo of the sunrise as seen from the window seat of an airplane.

At ten thousand feet,
I awake dazed and confused
with the rising sun.

Day break

Light is upon us:
desperate to stay awake,
sun and moon tangle.

Fake

photo of Perth's skyline, as seen from Kings Park entrance just before sunrise — Pre-sunrise in Perth

Unnatural lights;
in the darkness of morning
sustain a city.

Wake up call

photo of the sun, just as it rises above the ocean horizon

Father ocean calls:
there’s light in the horizon;
awake my dear sun.

Moonbeam

photo of the full moon against the blue of the pre-sunrise sky, with a house and front yard in the foreground

Drop in an ocean:
blue sky illuminated;
moon, before sunrise.
