Daybreak Poems

Morning Ritual;Autumn

Outside the trees are called
by the Autumn’s breeze.
The door isn’t perfectly shut
as the leaves seep through
the uneven cracks.
The whistling tune from
Nature’s broken karaoke
machine finds its way under
the door. Slowly the shadows
become dimmer as the morning
sun sets in and the birds begin
to chirp as the crickets causes
a ruckus enough to wake
the subconscious mind from
sleeping internally. 
The

Daybreak

As stars close their tired eyes
when darkness fades the day
they slip slowly out of sight
and cloud-shrouded yesterday's
no more in play
say goodbye to a watercolour sky
the rain washed away

O say can you see morning has broken
raising the curtain to curtail night
daily they do it that way before we've woken
and all the king's horses and all the

As I bathe in my
morning coffee,
a candle lights the
way. In a matter of
moments I'm ready
to greet the day.

Premium MemberAwaiting Daybreak

Half past midnight, I have nothing to do
Though I swore I needed something
And that something might be you
I'm merely lying in my bed
Restless, with nothing to do

Then came 1 AM, still I cannot rise
Though my stomach's loudly growling
And it's screaming, "gimme food!"
I soothed my angry, churning tummy
Yet still, I cannot move

Then arrived 2 AM, I'm

The crescent moon lies upon his back
      At the fiery break of day
           While Jiminy Cricket sings his favorite tune

Premium MemberCajoling the Mist to Lift at Dawn

In misty dawn, where lilac blooms croon,
Weary heart strums a bluesy tune,
To cajole the sun to day-spring,
From its dream-time, and join and sing,
To lift dark's slumber veil and swoon.

Etching sun-beams through the dank dune,
Guitar player and sun attune
The dawn is lifted from mist's cling,
In the dawn expectant.

With a sigh of relief the moon
Lifts the pall

Sleepy eyes, unhurried by the light,
Stirring the morning with song,
Dazzling shafts charm away the bleak night.

Whispered prayers are morning’s birthright,
She sighs across souls all her lifelong.
Sleepy eyes, unhurried by the light.

Glistening stars rouse poetry which I write,
Fragile as the moon who boasts of being strong.
Dazzling shafts charm away the bleak night.

Reflections of grace I see

so many moons have danced a-sea

          and swum in eyes, entrancing me

               but such dear blessings pale to one -

     the chance to rise with each new sun.

Premium MemberThe Twilight

Over the mountains the purple comes rolling
lit like a backdrop silhouette glowing

Soon to meet the valley in cascades of light
to make day of what has been night

The sun with shine
 the stars will fade

And some will sleep
while others awake

And soon once again
that purple will rise

and push the light out
from the skies
