The Whisper of Sunrise
in the whisper of sunrise
the sun through the mesquite
the promise of another day
from the breeze blowing around me
in these early morning moments
when not a murmur is heard
distance grows like thick, green moss
on the north side of a tree
I put it all in perspective
with coffee on the patio
filing away the pieces of us
that I once did know
don't worry about our yesterdays
no redemption do you need
once, what kept me wondering
no longer pesters me
wrapped in warmth around me
all that I sought from you
true and everlasting
gone, are all of the storms
in the whisper of the sunrise
it is His mystical way
to open up a window
when the door shuts on yesterday
