Does this poem create a picture "A Morning"?

The first light of dawn sliced the fading night

Penetrating the forest of dead leaves

Staining the trees in a soft yellow light

Leaving the mind to enchantments conceived

Fading away is the paint of dusk gray

The sun rises with coat of flowing gold

Melting away clouds as they try to stay

Warming each flower so their petals unfold

Welcoming the morning, birds on the wing

Quietly searching for a morning's feast

A path I will walk to hear them all sing

In awe of Nature of which I'm the least

To see all this life so captive in form

To wander in light so precious so warm

    Another "bullseye" with this poem,

    Capitvating in your descriptive phrasing.

    The syllable flow is flawless.

    A relaxing, natrual momentum leads the

    reader to a satisfying, meaningful denouement.

    This makes two-in-a-row on my "save

    list" from the same poet in as many months.

    That's a first.

    Excellent, Fred.

    Frederick, you have some really pretty images here, and I enjoyed reading your poem. It's like a walk through Nature, which I so love! It zeroes in on the sun and all it's glory! Your use of verbs to show the actions of the sun is well done! I'm going to copy it down and keep it for myself. I like the last line especially ~ "To wander in light so precious so warm." Thank you for creating this piece of poetry, so beautiful!

    The perfect uplifting gift of warmth and gentled heart: -

    you have the art of moving mountains of grey

    to bring visions of light.

    Following this path with you holding my mind in your vision

    you have brought me the sun on this very very dismal

    December day; Here, Fredric, the evening is begun sullen

    and unyielding the day brought which we force our way

    and when my spirit dips too deep, I come upon this, your

    soothing, healing Dawn.

    As nature too, pushes her way into softnesses.

    The couplet which embraces our poem`s meaning is,

    in itself a welcoming. My Special Thanks

    for this relief, and relief it is from the urban stasis.

    *The sun arrives, wears coat of flowing gold*

    ..yet the phrase you have brings birth back to all...

    more than a picture, so much more than a picture...

    Definitely. I could see myself standing there, watching it unfold. The warmth starting on my skin and the light haze of dawn lifting for the start of a beautiful day..
