The Quietist Hour 2

The quietest hour Has come And gone Along with the Still Darkness All night long A bird call now and then Heralds the waking day As the sky Is licked orange By the rising sun The coldness Of darkness Turns into Morning cold air That still wants To wrap you To maintain the Misere Which makes It easier To accept the Warm comfort Of the night nest Rather than Take that first step To acknowledge The new day

WOW, this one slipped through untouched. An homage to the snooze alarm, nicely done
