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
This is beautiful poetry.
Thank you so much

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.
Welcome. I hope they bring some warmth in the heart 🙂
Here nothing freezes 😀
Very nicely expressed and my Mom likes the Doris Day song, “Que Sera Sera.” 🙂 Smiles, Robin
Thank you. I like that song too, it is really very nice 🙂
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 🙂
You are welcome, Geetha…there are no other requirements for the aubade. Your piece fits it perfectly!
Glad to hear and thanks, I am doing great…busy with work but just loving life 😀
The best it can get then. Enjoy 🙂
Awesome and beautiful creation… liked it a lot… 🙂

Great writing, Geetha. Well done.
Thank you Jean 🙂 I hope you are feeling better despite the difficult date. Bless your partner’s soul and many blessings to you
I’m doing fine, thanks. Went down to watch the sunrise and that made the world feel a lot better.
That’s good news. Sunrise and sundown are both equally fascinating and soothing I find
They are magnificent ~ so similar yet so different.
wow – I am unable to handle your words today, It touched me deeply – It makes someone to fall in love by reading your words….Imagine…
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 😀
Another beautiful piece with more beautiful pictures! Wonderful Geetha. 🙂
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
