Inspired by ‘On the nature of daylight’
by Max Richter
~
earth yawns into morning
night air thins to nought
an imperceptible stirring,
no movement more a sense
of changing shape and form
to greet emerging light,
colours blossom, hues fill out
blushing with fresh warmth
conjuring the new day’s
complexion to settle
to declare itself,
its favoured humour rebalanced
before we rise
