Dawn

day break is dawning
I captured the moon yawning
while the sun was getting dressed
I heard cars rolling over 
the wet pavement from the mist 
of the morning dew the smell of wild 
open granduer arouses my memory
of colonial pastures and beckoning hues
the crawling grapevines creeping around 
the banyan trees of warm wood cold rock 
crisp cedar too why day break is dawning 
its dawning anew
