Dawn Poems
Behind the Dawn
by Ayatullah Nurjati
Behind the gentle tinge of dawn.
Pulling back the curtain of the receding night.
Clear light sweeps away the darkness, bringing peace to a sinking heart.
The wind whispers in a slow rhythm, bringing messages from a calm universe.
Nature speaks in silence, teaches a heart that is bound by worldly noise.
the dawn that comes every day, bringing hope in holy robes.
Teach us, as you teach nature, to live peacefully without resentment.
Under the shade of your simple light, I gained the true meaning of life.
That everything that comes will go, but love for nature remains eternal.

Dawn

(aubade)
Dawn! Tarry your approach incipient;
Dawn, just now you are not expedient.
My love now slumbers close to me;
I luxuriate in her warm nudity.
Rear-view mirror sunrise
by Joe Cyr
As I drove westward one early morning
I saw, to my surprise,
Creation there, in my rear-view mirror -
Dawn, in miniature size.
Resplendent, with blazing colors,
as sunrises generally are;
this glorious brilliant masterpiece
was framed there in my car!

Dreams
by Basele Stephen
hands akimbo
aimlessly walking down, the street
eyes fixed afar,
don’t seem to see
a vehicle comes to an instant halt
meters from her empty frame
for her mind -flew off into the wide blue yonder
her dreams left already
roaming the length and breadth of the wide universe

sounds of day: prelude
by Rikske Kessner
Today has yet to break its silence, at dawn
the first rays sparkle off dew or frost or snow
followed by a rooster’s crow and we know
Yesterday rescinds its front row seat for another

at first light
by Rikske Kessner
Let us rise with the dawn,
Embrace this new day’s promise.
Tomorrow’s whispers guide us;
Innocence of past years fuels our steps
Together find peace in the present’s embrace.
