Sun’s Blessing
Early morning’s grace
Picturing new day ahead—
Confidence rising

Moving Forward
Positive thinking
Today’s refreshing goodness—
Go now, pass it on

Nightly Outlook
Darkness all around
Dancing with each twinkling star—
Tomorrow brightens

Early morning’s grace
Picturing new day ahead—
Confidence rising

Positive thinking
Today’s refreshing goodness—
Go now, pass it on

Darkness all around
Dancing with each twinkling star—
Tomorrow brightens

Welcome back sunrise
Sharing landscape’s masterpiece—
Creator with us

Autumn transitions
Fashioned by Creator’s breath—
Anxious winter waits

Horizon’s curtain
Sunset invites journey’s dreams—
Creator at rest

Warmest beginnings
Sunrise’s gift of welcome—
Youthful innocence

Horizon’s shadows
Sunset offers gratitude—
Joyful innocence

Landscape now resting
Under serenity’s quilt—
Nightly innocence


Morning’s quiet retreat
Offering sunrise view
Taking splendor’s front seat
Sky sketched with clearest blue
Sanctuary of peace
Spirit’s closeness abounds
Renewal of life’s lease
Stillness felt all around
Harmony’s joyful tune
Brightening this new day
Filling every full moon
Mountain’s peak never gray
River’s gathering dreams
Shaped within ancient hands
Journey’s endless bloodstream
Tranquility’s heartland
Tomorrow always waits
Offering one more chance
Tasting now, nature’s fate
Spirit’s refreshing dance


The photos shown with this poem come from my private collection. They desire to complement each stanza with nature’s voice.
Toes filled with white beach sand
Eastern horizon brightens
Morning’s sunrise glowing
Feeling life’s burdens lighten

Face stings with winter’s cold
Mountain ski run offers thrills
Freshest powder waiting
Energy flowing downhill

Sunset viewed from front porch
Peace adds footnote to this day
Tomorrow always dreams
Thoughts sketching blessed essay

Morning’s wilderness lake
Fisherman’s heart set to cast
Man and nature as one
Sunrise ascends to full mast

Moments with nature’s voice
Thankful for each treasured gift
Every day welcomes home
Spirit no longer adrift


Another day
Another mountain
Faced with challenges
Finding wisdom’s fountain
Another day
Another unknown
Faced with emptiness
Finding one stepping stone
Another day
Another low tide
Faced with little hope
Finding tomorrow’s guide
Another day
Another question
Faced with mystery
Finding next suggestion
Another day
Another sunrise
Faced with certainty
Finding life’s clearest skies

Morning’s stillness breathes
Renewing peace returns home—
Dawn welcomes one back

Afternoon’s hope stirs
Gentle breezes come calling—
Spirit fills each heart

Nightly curtain drops
Horizon’s fading embrace—
Tomorrow’s light waits

Dawn’s welcoming sign
Sunrise offers daily grace—
Unforgettable

Morning showers fade
Rainbow’s vividness appears—
Testament of peace

Evening’s curtain drops
Serenity’s sunset glows—
Time’s faithful footnote


Tempting much too early
Overflowing thoughts stir
Life’s background music plays
Traveling to Big Sur
Remembering darkness
Transforming to moonlight
Memories play again
Rising from calmest night
Filling empty bucket
Pondering this new day
Distant dawn now teases
Opening mind to play
Feeling heartbeat’s rhythm
Leaving shadow’s twilight
Wisdom’s timeless travels
Scaling forgotten heights
Harmonizing sunrise
Glowing horizon beams
Sweet morning refreshment
Waking from blissful dream

Each calming sunrise
Warmest personality—
Treasured summer breath

Sunrise awakens
Color added to landscape—
Stirring with brightness

Transforming sunrise
Moonlight now fading way—
Day’s curtain rises
