The burning disc of fire climbs slowly,
warming my face
and lighting embers of gold all around.
I wonder who else sees it?
The all night party goers
dashing over the pebbled hill
to catch the kitch moment,
The early dog walkers
stuck in routine
skidding round a muddy field,
Holiday makers setting off
to beat the infernal traffic,
or me,
awake with no other agenda,
wondering how I miss this amazing sight
every day
knowing I'll miss it again tomorrow,
but just for now
left thinking
Wow!
