As dark turned to dawn, in bed with my love I lay,
wishing for time to stop. . . so in his arms I might stay....

Dawn
Travail is what binds us,
The broken hearts we share--
And so it is we travel thus
In longing and despair.
Yet for the night that lingers so,
The road still winding on--
There is one thing I breathless know,
That dark precedes the dawn.
And for the hope of daybreak,
That it will intercede--
I once more smiling waken
Yet unwilling to concede....

Celestial Reflections-Hiku
sunlight sauntered through
the dark edge of dawn ~
amber horizon
brilliant diamonds
stippled upon black velvet ~
glittering stars
silver ornament
hung in ebon skies ~
moonlight through the mist

So Dark Before the Dawn
The shadow fades, the sunsets
In the end the curtain closes
You promised me an eternity
Now there is only darkness only loin less
A moment is all I ask just a moment more
Why oh Why my love do you leave me now
Alone and forgotten
Here in the darkness before the dawn
Lost and alone nowhere to go
Will the dawn break through and guide me through

A Welcome
Just as the dark before the dawn,
We must suffer winter before the spring.
Spring comes in on a warming breeze,
Waving goodbye to the old snow king.
Peering bravely through last of snow,
The early bulbs turn to welcome her.
It seems Mother Earth is giving birth
As all of new life begins to stir.
The birds and the bees, new buds on the trees,
Proclaim that sweet spring is here to stay.
I most of all, hear the siren's call
And rush forth to greet the first spring day....

Greed and Fall
As I struggled in the dark lane at dawn
With noisy crickets giving rhythms in my trance
I recalled myself, 'a diamond among the sea of glass'
Who once sat on a winning lottery
But my gigantic hunger made the curtain of life fall.
Will I have a second bite at a cherry?
One that comes with grits and stars?
Not in dusks but sunrise in life?
These questions kept knocking through my brain while the yellow light rested on my cheek.
I hope to break the circle and make it count again!...
