Napowrimo Day 30 Poem

Prompt: none used. Yeah, I made it, though there were many days that I wasn't sure I would. A poem a day in April. Hard at times, but well worth it.

April 30/13


Sunrise

Up early
Before kids crash around
and want breakfast.
Alone and peaceful.
Tiptoe around the kitchen
to make tea
Then outside to the deck.
The sun low on the horizon.
Waves crashing on the shore.
The salty taste of the air.
Birds chirping in the trees.
And something else?
Must be the tinkle of
Fairy laughter
Greeting the new day.
Stretched out on a chair
Comfortable and relaxed
Letting the sun wash over,
Renewing,
Inspiring peace and awe.
Burning away the clouds
And the night.
The sun rises higher,
Reflecting off the water
In a diamond glittering spray.
Dazzling,
Almost too much to look at.
Sunrise over the ocean.
