azure -- isn't azure a kind of blue? Seems redundant.

wind as water -- I like wind as water, flowing and ever moving, but it doesn't flow well into crisp

sometimes -- I'd just say too soon. I think having sometimes weakens the statement.
too

Hi Luna! I'd consider a title change, since it gives away your ending lines. It's kind of a spoiler.
I do like 'tomorrow wakes too soon.' I take it as the loveliness being described doesn't last long enough.
Good to see you posting again.

Lizzie,
I built this little piece holding a bit of Carl Jung's word association; using simple words. Nevertheless, I think you're right concerning the title and flow.
You know, it's good to post again.
Thanks for reading and commenting
