Determined Dawn

Sweet, silvery linings streak across the inky waters,
as the waves rush in and tumble over one another.
We walk across the sandy shore, hand in hand.
We made it just in time to watch the sun take its stand.

The determined dawn rises from the ocean,
as the seagulls gather around the golden haze.
The wind whispers a thin welcoming,
as the stormy world welcomes a new day.

The kiss of crimson on the horizon;
The silken clouds floating like prayers in the sky.
The day’s outcome is so uncertain,
as the sun leaves the water’s embrace.
