In the early morn padding down the pier Looking o’er familiar sands and wake On island pure and in mans heart held dear The view beheld in eye was one to take Rising was the sun on horizon vast With arrays of hues brilliant and bright Light illuminating my afore path Greeting new day farewell to sacred night Shadows chased away from places in dark Luminescence ushering a new dawn Single lines of footprints on beach did mark nature again began its joyus song The breath of the ocean made morning air chill Cept for whispering breeze all things were still

Love your imagery in this sonnet. It describes a picture I was looking at yesterday with the sun rising over the ocean and the footprints in the sand. I love sunrises and sunsets... my favorite times of the day. Janet
