Morning awakens
The gentle slumber of the sea
Casting a brilliance of crimson
Against mountains, still restless
From the ebony night

A gentle rippling
Of the ocean tide
Sends shimmering splendor
Across pale blue, basking
In the sun’s radiant light

Reflections linger
In the water’s hue
A quiet caress, waking day
Whilst Heaven’s jewel, softly
Colors black with a glorious sight
