Baptism In Light

Morning has woke
to songs of the world
of gasping night 
no other sound heard


Movement is seen
in the corner of eye
Kookaburra laughs
heart swells to sigh


Terrors of night
recede into the mists
Fresh is the air
crispness this bliss


Moon tipped the sky
as night called
glimpsed day beckoned
an orbit enthralls


Blankets of frost
sequin my world
this is magic
and winter is pearled


Icicles hanging
from eves sparkle bright
leftover spectacles
past beauty’s night


Opening the drapes
in minds eye
morning has come
Another day baptized
