Gulf of Guinea (Lagos, Nigeria)- SUNRISE

Some mornings a perfect sunrise is just what you need to start the day right.

Sunrise at the Sea By Betty Harp Butler

God created so much beauty on earth-
Mountains and plains, hills and valleys,
But nothing can compare to a sunrise at the sea.
It is a miracle created just for you and me.

The sky and the ocean seem to blend
Together on the horizon.
Slowly the light slips
Over the line…

Glorious colors appear on the horizon.
As the sun slowly climbs over and begins
To ascend in glory sublime.
Such breathtaking beauty brings tears to my eyes.

I am reminded of creation in the beginning
When God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
I worship the one who created such beauty.
It is simply pure delight.Read more
