Becoming
In the perfect stance of dawn,
I lay, listening to the silence
Of day, gathering her thoughts,
Planning her statements,
For a span, destined already as good.
She is writing her love song,
To woo world to awakening,
A world she loves so deeply,
With all her heart and might.
Words come easy, for such
A lover she, whose ultimatum,
The sacrifice of mercy for life,
Preens under a waning moon.
Unfailing, though chameleon,
She stays her course.
For that is her nature, abiding,
And sure as sunrise in its glory.

Oh, I know that ‘perfect stance of dawn’, Gillena, my favourite time to sit with a cup of cranberry and raspberry tea, a cat on my knee. The perfect time for gathering thoughts – and writing poetry and love songs.

This is my favorite time of day, Gillena, and you captured it perfectly. It's just a little bit past dawn now, too rainy/cloudy to see a sunrise. This might be my favorite poem of yours. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. 💙
