Man and sun conspired
5 January 2016
The sun emerged white
Battling with moonlit traces
Broad skies twined two lights
The moon shied away
Night’s ample reach drowned in cold
Conceding fair skies
Sunny morrows rose
Shining petals shone through clouds
Limitless broad smiles
Awakening birds
Chirped through boundless horizons
Voices crystal clear
Winter clothed vast lands
In mocking fields of springtime
Luminous rain fell
Pleasant flowers laughed
Immense wit to trick seasons
Man and sun conspired

I got the Sun in the Morning – Doris Day

Just reading about the sun and flowers was a joy. We are at Zero right now and will be dropping to -4 at night. Winter is not a good for birds, animals, or the homeless. It’s just way too cold for living things. When I put the cat food out it freezes almost immediately. The snow is frozen, everything is frozen and we are not living in the country or the Arctic. Arggggg! It’s only January 11th. Thank you for the flowers.

What beautiful imagery in both word and photo…Geetha, your description of the coming of morning fits perfectly the ingredients of an Aubade – a poem that laments or welcomes the morning :Just gorgeous, my friend…hope all is well!!

Thank you Thomas. Yet another comment I did not see before. This is great. So I can create a new Aubade section and add this one to it or are there other ingredients I have to have as well? I guess I can still cheat and put it in the Aubade section 😀
I am well thank you for asking and I hope you are well too 🙂

Thank you Mihran, that is really such a sweet comment and compliment. I doubt though that people in this day and age would actually fall in love just based on words from someone. At least let’s say it would be a very rare thing today. Thanks as always for your appreciation 🙂

I agree and respect each word – once Shakespeare mentioned the following:
Love is merely a madness: and, I tell you, deserves as
as well a dark house and a whip, as madmen do: and the
reason why they are not so punished and cured, is, that
the lunacy is so ordinary, that the whippers are in love too.

What a lovely quote Mihran. I agree, we all want to love and be loved so I guess the lunacy is ordinary among all people 😀

Thank you Eric. I am glad you liked it. Today was a glorious morning and seeing the sun and moon together in the sky always produces such a curious effect, especially if the night was cold before that phenomenon occurs
