Notes About The Poem

In The Hush Of Dawn

When silence speaks....

In the still hush of dawn serene    
Silence speaks of this pastoral scene 
Whispers of wind through fields of green           
Where nature’s beauty truly convenes     

Meadow flowers bloom in shades bright 
Beneath the soft morning’s sunlight 
Rustling leaves in gentle flight 
A tranquil moment, pure and right.          

The whip-poor-will ‘s song pon the air       
His melody is beyond compare 
A peaceful stillness everywhere 
In this gentle pastoral scene fair 

The babbling creek sings a sweet tune 
Beneath the silvery hidden moon 
Harmony felt beneath the fog so soon 
Now silence speaks as nature communes 

The nightjar’s voice slowly goes quiet 
Daybreak is here always reliant
Early morn our only time to commune 
Thank you, God, for morn’s sweet tune

Thank you, Howard, for your encouraging review. I can feel God's present in the early morning light and when I am able to go where I can get a glimpse of the rising sun, I get inspired. Sara K

Beautiful couplet rhymes. Dawn is always lovely when it's not cloudy like today.

Sometimes there is some beauty in those clouds as well, Victor. This morning it is solid gray, but I don't know what the whole day will present. Yesterday it started off gray and ended up with some sun which was very hot and there was a lot of humidity. Thanks for stopping by. Sara K
