Predawn

Katie B.

Before sparrows sing

Stillness settles in the eves

Time lapses as if stalled and

Humans slumber in tranquility

But I, I rejoice

ln the night sky's resilience

Where silence curves around the edges

Slipping into my snug fitting robe

Where solace blankets

Peace lingers ever present, abiding

My mind, devoid of clutter

Revels in the intoxication of solitude

Sacred hours melt into dawn

And I, I greet the world anew

            There's a point in the morning that's yours.
            Sadly, it never lasts long enough to take it in completely.
            Someone has to make the breakfast.
