A Moment In Time

There is that quiet hour
in the midst of the gray
morning sky

As I silently contemplate
the nights end eclipsing
itself by the whisper of
a breath

Dawn now breaks across 
a feathered landscape 
to reveal a silent
soliloquy for myself
to hear

How effortlessly the warm
sun glides over the
horizon as if to portray
a spectacular formation
for my eyes to behold

The glow and warmth
descends upon my face
gently kissing each cheek

Eyes closed, lips warmed
this joy transcending all
that I am, all that I feel,
threading this very moment
into my fabric forever...
