Dance of Dawn





The lazy fingers of dawn,
creep into my window,
shining in on me.

Dancing rays of light,

filter through smoky windows,
warming me with its touch.

I am awake!
Alive!
Thirsting for more of life.

I await the challenges of a new dawn,
seeking the surprises of the day,
I unwrap the day with trepidation.

The sunbeams call to me.
"Dance with me,
sing your song of life."

The illumination of light
plays a sweet melody,
serenading soft lullibies.

Not one to sleep,
nor willing for the lullabies
to lull me away,

I change the tune.
Dance to my own beat,
moving in the rhythm of the new song.

I welcome the dawn's fingers
as they beacon me to
join in the dance of day.
