Aurora

by NightFlyer   Oct 7, 2009


Fair Aurora,
Paints her sky with brush strokes of amethyst
On misty clouds, she rides
Past the glory of the Morning Star
A sea of opal pours through gates of sleep
And pearly clouds gather like foam on timeless waves
As she pushes back the night on her turquoise tide,
Making way to mother-of-pearl.

note: Aurora was a goddess of dawn.

    Thank you for all your kind words. This is something I wrote last year after gazing at a beautiful Florida dawn.
