Hmm how odd,
I must have looked at it
every morning of my entire childhood
and every morning of my short adulthood as it were
I used to wonder,
as I stared at it,
is it rising?
or is it setting?
I asked its painter,
she told me that was something she'd never thought of
told me it was objective
for the viewer to decide.
I looked at it this morning
and I decided finally
that ut has to be a sunrise
for I am tired of things that end
I want that light
that life
so now I see for the first time
that sunrise
