Bridal Veil

 

subtle sense of apparition

apprehension as if in dreams

in early haze, mystic vision

up to review first flush of creams

 

floating thin, then inconsistent

definition seeks views distant

 

lookout east, above restful lake

stretched clouds tint pastel hues

sunbeams ascend soon at daybreak

mist most sheer flows upward to blues

 

this day begins with wedding vow

to have and hold my bride of now

 

 

Reviews

[Lizanne]

Up to view the early morning mist rolling over the waters as the rising sun kisses the edge of the horizon.
The mist would resemble the rolling and billowing of a giant bridal train. You married the morning and will embrace the day as your mate. Beautiful greeting of a perfect view and a new day of enjoying the moments that are given to you. Your pen flows so eloquently on this work.

[Cherrie Palmer]

The sunrise as a time to be married with hints that the sun is the bride and the morning mist as wedding gown, beautiful.

Hi James,

Wedded to the new day--very nice! I like the lines:

up to review first flush of creams
floating thin,

it brings to mind a bride's complection or dress.
