An Electric Sunrise (Bronze Trophy)

 

Into the darkness we plunge

unaware of the coming day

through the mist of night we flounder

barely making our way

 

Dreams of havoc, hostility

not a star to guide us through

until we fall with exhaustion

into a sleep, no dreams anew

 

Then comes the morning after

with  grey skies overhead

sleeping put aside once more

another day to dread

 

But soon we realize this time

a wonderful gift, a surprise

as with the dew comes pleasure

in the form of Electric Sunrise

 

He’s come to save the day

to bring sunlight and blue skies

there’s nothing can compare

to a morn’ with Electric Sunrise

 

In tribute to Phil aka Electric Sunrise,

moderator supreme

    I think I read this before but not sure. The title sounds familiar. I like readng dedictions because it shows you really care about the people you are writing about. Congrats on your bronze trophy.

    You've been hood-winked!

    This is a really sweet dedication. I took a class from Electric Sunrise and he was very nice. Again, a very good tribute. I enjoyed your light rhyming.
