Sun Kissed

The Sun rises gently as I tread
Casting streaks and shadows
Across the icy snow
It greets me cheerfully
As it peeks through the trees
Rising higher with each step
Shining brighter with each lap
The trees shield it from my eyes
Creating beauty as I pass
I never tire of its views
I get a thrill from each glance
I try to capture every moment
But lenses never do it justice
The peace and joy it brings to me
Can never be expressed fully
My images and words
Are my best attempt
To share with the world
The pleasure that I feel 
When it kisses me

Reflection upon my walk on a sun kissed morning.
