Sensing What's Coming

  a quickening of the pulse
    sensing what’s coming
  a lifting of the heart
    the atmosphere humming  

  lighter shades of gray first
    then brilliant colors in streaks
  the majesty of the dawning
    prelude to sun’s crowning… 

  the whole world’s reborn, alive
    yet humanity still sleeps
  If men only knew what they’re missing
    from their beds they would leap

Gershon I thought of the Rapture when I read this but it could be a beautiful morning to enjoy and to see. Thanks for sharing...

Thought provoking! I enjoyed the rhyme but the theme of what’s coming is intriguing! What’s coming can be viewed from different perspectives and cultural or religious backgrounds as well as scientific! What is the poems inspiration what do you see coming?
