I wake up to an epiphany
An April morning of solemnity
An ocean flowing with passion
A swirling Van Gogh sky
A burning masterpiece
Of light and color
Radiant in its bounty
Rotating on the earth’s axial tilt
A spinning kaleidoscopic globe
Orangey reds and mystical blues
Awakening adventurous lives.

I nod… which doesn’t translate well into words, yet imagine me nodding

The gorgeous poem brings up an image of running along the hills, a swirling orange and blue twilight sky.
