Scorched Dawn: Sunlight's Fierce Embrace
The transformative touch of light and shadow
By Rickey Goins Published 6 months ago • 1 min read

Halcyon Sun
Beneath the hush of morning’s veil,
a golden hush—
sunlight spills,
soft as breath,
over the waiting earth,
igniting secrets buried deep.
It stirs the shadows,
coaxing them to dance,
each blade of grass
a green awakening
in the gentle, gilded trance.
The heart, once heavy,
lifts—
a field unburdened
by the night’s cold weight,
now brimming
with the promise of harvest,
charged with fierce rebirth.
Every ray a silent whisper:
grow,
open,
become,
transform.
In that first touch,
the world is remade—
not just seen,
but felt—
a quiet surge of hope
rooted deep
in the sun-warmed soil.
