Misty Morning

misty-mountain-morning

View
The misty
Mountains all around,
Like sleepy heads of children.
Wake
Up!
Behold the sunlit morning.
See the birds take wing—
O what a
Sight!

With each Mirror Oddquain I’ve written, I have attempted to establish some sort of connection between the first and last words. In this one, view and sight are synonyms.

Scansion:
Mirror Oddquain — Two oddquains, where the second is reversed.
Syllabic structure: 1-3-5-7-1-1-7-5-3-1
An Oddquain is a Cinquain minus one syllable from each line.
Rhyme not required.
