dawn rise

dawn rise

morning dawn rises lazily

waking from deep slumber

making way into the vast open 

of the wintry sky

in effort to chase the cooling temperatures 

the season has brought

the world yawns 

its lifeblood gives pause

taking but moment to reflect  

life is again renewed energized and gifted

Winter is too cold for some but I find it quite stimulating and energizing...
the summer depletes me...
I must be opposite of most.
I like the third stanza, although this poem certainly doesn't yawn...it is most expressive.

A slow sleepy start to the day. That's the way to rise in winter when it's cold outside.

read next comment first ... HA!
the first two weeks of each season thrust me into sensory overload
stimulating all my senses exaggeratedly
wow! that's a real word?
and a slow rise is greatly appreciated by this old body and mind
it's not like each season gets full blown on day one.

appreciate your comment and as always your visit is welcome

I love the slow sleepy morning reaching out to a cold start.
