Refreshed
Tender morning rain
Nourishing landscape’s spirit—
Heavenly bounty
Embodied
View of morning sky
Peeking above lofty trees—
Life rises to light
Anticipated
Chill of morning air
Catching each northerly breeze—
Summer winks at fall
Harmony drops in
Lifting spirits high
Waking from slumber
Morning’s bluest sky
Valley’s faithful river
Unending with peace
Flowing with wisdom
Comforts never cease
Sun brightens flashbacks
Counting former days
Energizing with joy
Ready now to play
Time injects stillness
Billowing with clouds
Yielding blessed shade
Whispers never loud
Heaven’s love singing
Blessing life below
Extending day’s light
Nature now aglow
In recent weeks, high level winds have moved a thick, smoky haze from Canadian wildfires into the airspace in some of the northern regions of the United States.
Northern-based fires burn
Smothering southern skies
Nature under assault
Day-by-day forecasts advise
Hazy, smoky skies
Hiding morning sunshine
Air quality alert
Heavens covered in disguise
Filtered sky above
Waiting for winds to change
Today must continue
Even though feeling short-changed
Fires now flaming out
Welcoming back blue sky
Sun makes blessed comeback
Disruptive smoke says goodbye
Nature overcomes
Pushing through stressful days
Time ahead brings healing
Sky offers hours to stargaze
