Nascent colors
softly paint the dawn
as the first rays of the morning
sift thru the clouds.
The moon inhales
pulling the sea to her breast
revealing her silent secrets.
A moment in time
a moment of peace.
An anchor of stillness
before the world awakes.

Wonderful, unforced
The way I feel the world still feels in some places. May they continue in their unbridled peace and boredom. Amen.

A very poetic way to describe the pulling of tides on the beach at the early breaking of day. I like the way it relates to the picture.
