Dawn Awakes

Autumn's moon truly radiant and playful, 
    In a stippled and midnight blue hues.

  Fragile is the troth with nature. 
    Falling, trembling, withered leaves, 
      Drift throughout gravel beneath; 
        Dapple shadow cast across the ground in stillness. 

  Silence surge as nascent darkness draws. 
    Snappish breeze, spring up slicing through darkness, 
      Lays a gentle kiss, and it slowly fades.

  Stillness, a breath, the wakeful light of dawn awakes.

Sally Eslinger March 26, 2022 at 9:28 AM Ahhhh…Eve! You have beautifully and accurately described my seeing of Spring’s All re-awakening(esp w/my poor vision that makes the wilted leaves still hanging look like ornamental beads on all the high twigs. Your use of language is enviable! Hugs!
