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.
in stillness of dawn
its silver gleam thrills me yet
a romantic night
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
"crosscurrent morning"
Streetcar wires shivering above the block,
first light wringing at last night’s worn edges.
A bin truck grinds somewhere behind the shops,
its metal cough slipping under the hour.
Pigeons lift from a rooftop ledge,
......
Blackest night is slowly fading away,
teasing earth with new dawn radiance,
golden soon for the current holiday,
neon ferris wheel follows moon dance,
novel and charming in the new old way,
like a vivid spinning top of chance.
