Sunrise or sunset? Which do you prefer? Why? Explain it. What are the colors, and sounds? How do you feel in the moment and about what is to come? What's floating in the air? Engage the five senses, and sell me on your choice of sunrise or sunset in only three lines.

Books with strong female leads

For me, it is the dawn that promises to hope
Especially with the spectacle in color she sometimes boasts
Scarves of heaven's filters tease the haze away
The beacon of her rising sun brings another ray
Wondrous and bright or harsh and poorly laid
Lives unfold to new beginnings
Blank pages, and brand new days.
