In Silence - Sonnet Poem by Peter S. Quinn

In silence rising dawn on the horizon
With the floating ocean's waves going by
I feel as if eternity is still on
In billows high and in the cloud going sky
Where night meets the twilight of a new turn
In curves of shading flow of sleeping earth
Where the reddish yellow colors again burn
With flickering flames in nocturnal birth

Shadows dancing on waves of the sea
Bringing to the shore every distance go
Fragrances of seaweed in eternity
Of the moving tides in their to and fro
Like a bird flying above the clouds drifting
My thoughts to timeless heights are lifting
