Through the Cracks of Dawn

Peeking through Thin fingers burrow Anxious eyes follow For a new gift on a new day Forgotten heels tremble Under the seas cold splash The moonlight a distant ways Her shadows a mutant ray Thin sand hide in between toes Hopeful plans align themselves in rows Written notes of lessons learned now under a strikethrough spell Crumbled dreams find themselves somewhere deserted Light still seeps through Even when the dark lasts longer than the day

This is lovely, Njeri! Often we build our life on dreams and hopes...some get lost along the way, but we still have to face the future with a positive outlook. Congrats on POTD. ~ paul
