Virgin Mornings

From darkness rose

the light of time

Reborn each day

from Eastern climes

 

In shadows wake

our future’s swim

Cross lakes of fire

toward Adam’s hymn

 

Repeat, repeat

new endings start

Redemption flames

with nature’s spark

 

As echoes answer

in voices new

Virgin mornings

— bid night adieu
