In this excruciating void
betwixt fading moon and
rising sun
an ebony pool
our weary souls float
crestfallen beside cockles
by phosphorescent starfish glow
too long this night
So, alight on the wings of the morning gull
a new horizon is beckoning
with shards of infant glow
unique, unseen
and
wholly
yours
Inspired by yet another exquisite dawn: mother nature’s deft strokes left me in awe.
Armadillo!!.. what kind of brilliant writing is this??… I kept looking for it to be a found poem or something of that nature from some timeless classic piece … amazing π

Each dawn announces a rebirth, new life to those whose hearts and minds are willing to risk grasping it. One can’t grasp it until one says goodbye to yesterday. Thank for your post and the thoughts it stimulated in me. Ray

More an enchantment than a poem such is the captivating beauty of the prose, this can only have come from one who can see not just look, an Alchemist of Word. Thank you
