Clouds and Fire

A glorious sunrise above the Sydney Opera House

As the embers of the rising sun
Set fire to the clouds across the sky
The world continues onwards
With barely a whisper or a sigh

And as surely as dawn follows night
People rise and people sleep
Going about their daily lives
Caught up in thoughts so deep

But some may stop and pause
And reflect upon this glorious sight
Of another breaking of the day
Of clouds of fire burning so bright
