yawn over
A lazy sun yawned over London's skyline as Chanel painted lips air-kissed at dawn Cloakrooms alive with dead fur And the Beautiful People, boxed up in black taxis, headed for their converted lofts ...A thin pine yawned over the house.What do these "yawn over" mean? As for the latter "yawn over", I think it's "leaning over" the house.
