Sitting within my walls of glass
Hot cup of tea in hand
I wait for the sun to rise
Over this green and pleasant land
Each morning this week
I have welcomed the low winter sun
Every day has been different
A spectacular sight, second to none
Colours change each day
Depending on the weather
From ambers, pinks, and reds
To subtle hues of heather
The sky slowly illuminates
As I watch from my front row seat
A golden orb rising from the hills
It's perfect circle incomplete
The surrounding world is silhouetted
As night becomes day
The dawn of a new beginning
As life gets under way
Oh Mother Nature
Thank you for this wondrous sight
As I sit here with my cup of tea
Saying goodbye to last night.
