Misty Morning

Mist lay snug in the hollows 
Quietly, 
in the time before sun 

A thick blanket too, 
covering the green 
In a land of mist, 
tall spires, 
rising through 

A swathe of hand, 
pushed away, 
mist from this land, 
brightening day 

Quiet misty morning 
tall spires, 
rising through 
Pale Eastern light 
Dawning 

An eagle, 
so high 
Above the tall spires 
Above the mist 
Looking for eastern light 
The disappearing night 
Now is the time, 
to fly
