The Dawning of the Day













The dawning of the day ...


Shadows of darkness speak in hushed dialects
Thoughts drip from tongue’s  stillness
with the silence of a whisper ;


osmosis forms dimly back-lit word whispers ,
heart’s avowals adrift , float in the ether currents' sigh
amidst the early morn's dappled thrown shadows


Enkindled embers of hope’s silent reverie
smoldering  in yesternight's
satchel of leftover dreams


Open palms behold a fragile heart in hands
awaiting daybreak’s kiss ;    


the spinning world becalmed ,
a seized moment's tranquility ........


Forever beginning verve quietly astir ,
incarnates the dawning of the day


Ethereal silence answers more questions than words
Colour of anticipation inflames spirit’s sunrise sky ...

Thanks so much for you encouragement Kelly and Steve...I have a few more unpublished new nature writes...just don't know where to publish these day, for some reason I've gotten a bit more self-conscious than usual, about the silence...thanks again for coming to this space
