Racing the edge of the honey-thick sunrise,
I reach for the horizon as it dissolves to blue.
Inhaling the dewy scent of leaves and clarity,

Dragging thirsty brushes across toothy paper,
I see yellow, brilliant and bright, as if for the first time.
Painting the edge of the honey-thick sunrise,
I create the horizon as it dissolves to blue.
