Dawn of Flight



My sadness rises
with the rooster robust call
in the pre-dawn 
It’s haltingly reluctance
seems to hang on 
to the morning mist drifting
A stubborn departure
exiting 
skyward feathery

To-day 
is such a fine
vapor mourning
Sublime ecstasy fills my heart,
watching 
heavy tear withdrawal grief
undergo
wet pillow 
evaporating disintegration

On dove wings,
the golden moist breeze
soothes me
Carrying my fears
of another hurtful separation
very far, up and away

Such a wondrous dawn of flight 
beginning 
to a bright future evening 
starlight new day
