A tissue of sunrise
A songful of morn
Buzzing and twittering
Sweet sounds adorn.
A deft little breeze
A kiss of warm glow,
Caressing and fluttering
Sinuous petals flow.
A surfeit of tide
A supple delving of sands
Shifting and drooping
Seaweed throng bands.
A rapid blue sky
A lazy slither of cloud
Rustling and stretching
Great trees stand proud.
