Dawn

Dawn swathed

In silken robes of hope

Treads softly past

My half open window,

Breathing a prayer

Over me.

I stir and sigh,

As the dreams of the night gone by

Toss around, teasing gently.

A rubicund ray

Steals through the open spaces

Of twilight

And gently caresses my little world.

Another day I take –

A few hours from a lifetime –

To etch a line or two.

A story, am I, in the making –

Half told, half heard.
