Sunrise
On the dusky horizon
A festival of fire!
The sky is singed:
The sea is scorched.
From coral red
To golden light,
A dazzlingly shifting
Dance of flame!
Amid the clouds of dawn,
The hills and knolls of the earth smile,
Their chubby cheeks
Tinged with crimson.
Now the flame sways,
Showering the earth with golden dust.
The flapping of a phoenix’ wings—
The sun now rises.
