Analysis of Wiseman's Gold
Dark and cold.
Dew sets in.
Stars fade as the black lightens to blue.
Golden strands of light creep over the hills.
Peering through awakening eyes,
as does the beauty of a new day.
The scent of all things new.
The roar of a hen.
Peace radiates the earth.
Unobtainable gold blends the day.
Surrounding.
Superceded by none.
A wiseman's gold.
