Morning Dove |
I sit quietly waiting for dawn's rebirth the dewdrops moist beneath me hands flat upon the earth To the west darkness lingers but I face the eastern light knowing dawn's gentle fingers will dispell the black of night A palette of pastel color meanders slowly across the sky like the touch of a tender lover caressing my chin, my mouth, my eyes I rise then in joyous wonder for as the sun lights the sky above the last of night is torn asunder by the wings of a morning dove |
