Yet Another Unnamed Poem Too Beautiful to be Allowed to Waste Away in my Archives of Other Unnamed Poems

I could taste the morning
As it came
Its light
Filling my window.

I can smell it now,
As it is caked in gray
Crumbling into clouds
And the road,
Drawing its fingers
Down the feathers
Of every unstill thing
The treetops have to offer.

And the soft light
Draws its lines
And cultivates shadows
Under everything

Soon it falls
Melting over the cold, green lawns
Lined with trees
Shrouded in mist

Its departure
Is bittersweet
I should know
I can taste it.
