Idyll of Daybreak Lake
Dreaming of idyllic forms
Puzzle pieces mold as one
Imaginary lines unrooted
Petty pebbles sink in twilight
Then suddenly I’m awake
Laying here at daybreak lake.
Early enough to see the dew
Abreast my cold feet wading
I watch ripples promptly cease
As new ones dawn the trip
A cycle our lives can relate
Halcyonic touch of daybreak lake.
Morning glory’s violets bloom
Across the rivers foothill edging
Streams aroma guides my pining
To faded footprints of my youth
Where aspen branches quake
Sunny haze at daybreak lake.
Minds heavy winds thudding
Worldly pebbles wash ashore
Submerging pleasant dreams
That wake ideals from slumber
While my heart's eye aches
Reflecting late at daybreak lake.
