A Dawn Like This

I've never seen
a dawn like this before
the sun subsiding
the moon bright
in the dim blue sky
Bowing to my cry
I cover my sight
tears in beauty
harboring in my eyes
only to turn
to diamonds
in the once before
night sky

    Yes, much fun. I had to run but I will send another haiku response! :) Well, maybe. I think my run with haikus is running low...

    the black tears to diamonds struck me too... makes me think of trying to hold back tears. Excellent poem.

    Great imagery with the words you convey
    With no shades of grey
    Enjoyed the read
    And the words you used to plant the seed
