Early Morning

Truedessa's Collection

A sliver of sunlight
ushers in a new day
footprints of yesterday
are washed away

waves whispering
a morning song
gulls laugh in the
ocean sprays

cloud people
awaken early
to a spectrum of light

there are castles
to build and dreams
to fulfill


written for dVerse
a quadrille of 44 words
incorporating the word early
Thanks for visiting

    1. The tides comes and washes many buildings away. Your words made me think of so many who lost their homes in the recent storms.

      May they find strength..,
