Dive-Bombed [Haiku]

a walk in the park.
eyes glued to the rising sun,
a crow dive-bombs me.

Wake Up! [Haiku]

the overnight train.
 foggy mind / sleep deprived:
  sunrise sky painting

Winter Sunrise [Haiku]

winter sunrise
 lights the bridge & gorge wall.
  i stand in the dark

Glowing Heart [Haiku]

the sun rises
 behind a bare rain tree,
  a glowing heart

Sunrise River [Haiku]

orange river
streaked in yellow; groggy
rowers clueless

Golden Spotlight [Tanka]

early morning 
rays hit the canopy
and fan out
into gold bands of light:
spotlights with no targets

Sunrise River [Haiku]

the sun rises
over the river,
worlds collide

Pale Orange [Haiku]

the tallest peak
catches the rising sun,
& glows pale orange

Sunrise Over the Mountain [Free Verse]

sunlight pours over the mountain,
cascading into the valley,
drawing all eyes into its blinding whiteness

too much light enters my eye
just as too much information, 
sometimes,
enters my mind

and, yet, i peer through the searing pain -
just for the view

Nordic Summer [Kyōka]

nordic summer.
the wee hours look like either
sunrise or sunset
is upon us, and
either way, it's true
