Early Morning

Half moon met me
in the morning
in a cloudless
tinged blue sky,

birds sang hello
beckoning my eyes
up into a
warm sun drenched canopy

billowing ginkgo buds
anticipating there
majestic opening
gently swayed

morning,
echoed a pair of falcons
as they passed on
their way…

River Birch, watercolor, watercolor pencil and ink. An older sun drenched painting to accompany my new poem.
