A pleasant morning which makes us happy that we woke up earlier to for this unique scene. All senses are involved, and we will fondly remember today's pleasures.

Gypsy,

I always need to look up what waning and waxing mean. Now with your poem, I have now decoded that alphabetically waNing comes first, and waXing comes last (-;

Do like your artwork and coloring.

If you want to continue your c-letter alliteration, consider crescent for waning.

Mark

I like the atmospheric feeling of the "waning morning moon" and how the sun rising causes the night to fade to morning. I wonder if the second line should just be cafe Madrid because it should be just three syllables for a lune.

    I chose the words lune, is 3/5/3 words. The other syllabus lune is 5/3/5.

Very nice, Gypsy. I love the image of coffee and croissant in Madrid, and then the shift to nature with the last line--waning morning moon. The last line has subtle emotional undertones. Well done.

You've managed to uncover images in my mind of having coffee in St Petersburg at 11:pm in broad daylight, watching the sunset in Santorini at sunset, midday in Dubrovnik, enjoying coffee is various locations, well done Gypsy, great d post, blessings Roy
