Transition.

Come 5 AM
Full moon stark and silent
the final hour
blackened skies.

Come 5:30
Cream rings enclose the moon
the morning haze
the darkest blue.

Come 6 AM
Twilight of dawn
silhouetted landscape
silhouetted trees.

Come 6:15
Gray sky waking
sleepy earth in green
milk moon begins to set.

Come 6:20
Lightened shades of sunrise
songbird morning lullaby
goodnight moon serenade.

Come 6:25
Moon low over trees
child eyes stare off
color wakes a daybreak.

Come 6:27
Rose-carnation yellow sky
dark trees against pastel
morning lunar transition.

Come 6:30
Lilac gold cements the earth
pave the sky in sunlight
bright to stir the life.

Come 6:37
Pink fades to white now
air holds all color
sun rise steady.

Come 6:45 AM
Dawn in atmosphere
morn spread in dewdrops
as I fall back to sleep.
