Today was dawn as chirping birds pranced on edges of bird feeders, pecking seeds
Yellow, blue, and corn husked in color—quick to flee upon approaching humans
Their’s was a fast and fleeting beauty whilst singing songs of dawn—clusters of blooming roses leaving too soon
Today was dawn as butterflies skirted across lakes of wild flora and mountains arose at the bow of a sun’s visaged gleam
Shadows slowly became erased by his fire and eyes gently opened upon water glistening beneath his tassels streaming
Today was dawn as I listened to earth’s song—her beating rhythm; ocean drums breathing inwardly
An effortless song—alive in her breath
Like a silhouette of numberless strings connected to one beating heart
Like a unison of endless canvases, creating one masterpiece
Today was dawn as I existed on her plane, touched by the same sun lighting her tapestry
Today was dawn as I arose with her beauty and song, sharing her magical breath
Alas, I faded into her dreams thus dreaming beneath her painted oasis of infinite, changing skies
