Sunrise in Phoenix

Sunrise in Phoenix
Splashes the sky with
Watercolor
Hues of fire and
Potential
Driving tired on 51
Longing for that first cup of coffee
Colors to the east
Bleeding into the car
Thinking of yesterday's mistakes
Today's obstacles
Tomorrow's regrets
The years remaining
Sense of history, perspective
I glance at the next car
He at me
Compatriots in instant nostalgia
