Until and Through Dawn

morning

in the warmth and given sun 
I am followed only by one 

though

as I move my hands and feet 
my friend behind me moves in-sink

and

all the more I jump and leap 
it herds me like a flock of sheep

until 

the night has come abroad 
they wave good by till morning with dawn.
