"I HEAR THE COLOR OF DAWN" 

There
There it is
A handful of cloud
that glows pink
as the fire rises
in the indigo sky
driving away
the night's dark shroud
The mountains 
majestic in the light of morn'
dance in hues
of orange 
and red 
greeting the new day born 
The sweet dawn song 
of many a nested bird 
frolics through the air 
giving voice to the colors 
letting them be heard.
