Morning Light

Morning Light




I begin to wonder how my morning has started

The prayer I have been longing to say

The wish I've been keeping all day 

Bring me again to a pattern,  I never finish to play

It is another day but is there a change

The way the sunrise shifts to the corner of the sky?

The background of the earth varies everyday, I agree

But does the landscape in my thoughts ever alter? 

 

If I chose things perfectly yesterday

Am I assured to spend my dawn time confidently? 

Although the fog litters  around today and mist distorts the image

Each time the outline carves out, I'm here again to grip

What was lost the other day; what was not done the last day

If tomorrows cannot forgive and rectify, I am standing in this porch 

Barely bathed by the morning light, shaded in the shadow of my past.
