This is a beautifully descriptive poem. The words capture the changing colors of the sky as dawn begins to break across the water.
A beautiful picture to accompany the poem too.

This was just beautiful. It was like having an artist's eye view of the breaking dawn. The descriptive passages were woven flawlessly with the meaning of the poem. Be in the moment. Enjoy where you are now and don't borrow tomorrow's trouble. Breathtakingly beautiful. Gretchen

I enjoyed your sonnet as it put me there on the dock at sunset and later at sunrise. The Speaker cautions us to enjoy the moment and not think ahead to "what tomorrow brings." Your rhythm is flawless and your imagery is noteworthy. Rod

This is a lovely entry for the No Restrictions competition. The illustrating picture perfectly reflects the poem's descriptive words urging us to not worry what the day may bring, but enjoy the present moment of a fresh beginning. Beautiful imagery.Good luck!

Your words are even more beautiful than the image you have chosen to illustrate them. You not only paint exquisite imagery with your words, but you deliver an important message. Excellent in every way.

This is a beautiful, wistful Sonnet reminding the reader of the sheer beauty of the dawn of a new day . 'The fading grays give way to golds and blues,'

Hi
This is a well written sonnet that gives good advice. We need to embrace the moment and not miss a single ounce of the beauty of the world due to worry about the future.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Good luck in the contest.
Have a great day.

This sweet, organic poem is so much more than nod to the heavens for a job well done. The underpinning of time passing by without acknowledgment is an invitation to live mindfully. Well done.

An engaging poem with great use of rich imagery and language.
The verse flows well and brings a clear picture to the mind's eye.
I especially like the first stanza and ending couplet.

I enjoyed the smooth and mellow tones of this poem.
The visual imagery is also very strong.
The invitation to Be Here Now is well articulated.
I'll meet you at that dock along with Otis Redding.
