Dawn breaks—bold, golden light an explosion of color against a winter-blue sky When was the last time I felt sunshine on my face? Bright light streaks the heavens, pink glow birds circle from lofty heights While I gaze up in awe from below © Colleen M. Chesebro

How beautiful. I love catching the breaking of dawn. And how strong the verb “break” is, in its description of it. So perfect.

It sure is. I read something the other day that talks about the warming of the planet taking more water out of lakes, rivers, oceans, etc. and up into the air, which makes it ever cloudier 😦
