A flurry of grey
Bare trees in glowing sunrise
Dozen squirrels play.

A sea at first glance on a chilly morn

But more a forest of craggy mountains

Red, brown and gold in the sunrise

Interrupted by a passing shadow.

Sometimes fog clears slowly

Calm in the wake.

Within a great mechanisation

Clattering steel marbles

Eventually reflect a blue sky.

Winding westward, following Phoebus

His stamina starting to wear as he wears his crown of light

Everywhere clouds, a wash of white.

Flashing orange aggression

I wore a smile with red, white, and blue

Storm during the celebration.
