As Morning Rays Dance


Morning sunrays dance over placid waters, struggling through a ghostly mist that envelops that early golden vista. Paths of the sunbeams highlight the surrounding shoreline as if caught in a limelight.

Regal swans slowly sail past barely breaking the water tension as they disappear into a grey blanket that pervades the morning coolness. No sound can be heard in the stillness of the air, leaving a surreal feeling of infinite peace. The mist slowly moves allowing the solar rays to mystically dance on the reflective waters of the lake. With water prisms breaking down the light into minute reflections like a musical pizzicato heard in your imagination, a piece written only for you. Bellbirds in the background add to the magic of the moment with their tingling calls, accompanying the twinkling light of the water.

A waltz of nature seldom seen, except by those who take time to exercise their senses. Such a display is often short-lived with no encore as the sun rises slowly from the horizon. An empty canoe, its' mirror image reflected on the surface beckons me to capture its splendour in my camera, unsure if it will hold the same mystique in a digital form. I breathe in the freshness of the air around me, smelling the subtle fragrances drifting past. All is at peace in my little corner of the world, a moment only too fleeting on a planet wracked in strife.

Poetry is my little niche in man's chaotic lifestyle. A chance to hold and cherish these little wonders of nature, to convey them to prose and share with other likeminded admirers of beauty.
