Early morning
The teal Long Island Sound
Soon to turn light blue
The dark blue clouds remain
The night hasn’t left quite yet
One lone star rests in the sky
A yellow diamond sun shines up above the brush
Rising
An icy chill pierces the heart
Everything new is everywhere
Someone is calling

Such a great poem! It truly captures the spirit, hopefulness, and early morning reflections evoked by an early morning walk along Long Island Sound.
