Circumventing the Silence 1

The night so long with dreaded suspense
and pain the darkness augments.
Morning circumvents
the silence.
Grope!

Dawn's mist of dew inspires common sense
dread retreats in self-defense.
Morning circumvents
the silence.
Cope!

Birdsong echoes my triumph intense,
stirring light and breeze commence.
Morning circumvents
the silence. 
Hope!
