Sara Kendrick Poet Roundel

Notes About The Poem

Playful Dawn

"The sounds of Earth is the music of my soul."

Upon the horizon, playful dawn cracked
Dressed in her iridescent rose ball gown
An upturned smile, never a downcast frown  
As soft wind touched wind chimes 'pon her barebacked

Baying hounds' continuous barks sorely racked
Poet's thoughts and varmint which they ransacked
Upon the horizon, playful dawn cracked
Dressed in her iridescent rose ball gown

Casting shadows upon gray clouds which lacked
Songs to brighten the day with a gold crown. 
Doves on the hill or valley way down
Coo to dawn with a song which gray clouds lacked.
Upon the horizon, playful dawn cracked
