Each morning’s silence finds me before
sounds of life begin to permeate the air
near daybreak
Early dawn releases its
unfailing daily promise: that thin line of light
over treetops
My line of sight differs from yours but
we see the same radiant energy
emanating, enabling range of vision
Most reliable confirmation, each ascent
dignifying daily expectation
that we may rise to any occasion.

Stay tuned for nightfall . . .
