A Golden Dawn

At last, the darkest depths of night
gave way to the dawning of light.
As sunrise dries moist drops of dew
it fades away the tears of grief.
A welcome respite and relief,
solace in glints of life anew.
Each golden dawn, an empty page
on which hope can soothe and assuage
when warm sun rays come shining through.

There had been times when even in my darkest despair, dawn always seemed to shine a light of hopeful possibilities, then I marched onward. A soothing, elegant piece!...ab

In the dark of night our troubles seem to magnify and its only when the sun rises do they become smaller. Tom

That's true, Tom. Light always offers hope for whatever problem we're facing. Thanks!

Wow! Jenna this poem describes exactly how I feel when I start coming out of SADD! It's almost like you have experienced it, too. Some folks say there isn't even such a thing as SADD, but it's obvious to me they haven't been around a person who suffers from it. Thank you! Thank you!

If I have, Milt, I wasn't aware of the issue. I hope Spring brings you enough light to renew your spirit. Thank you.
