DAWN INTOXICATION
17 September 2011

The magic hour,
the re-birth of God’s sun
on the silent redgold-emblazoned horizon,
spilling wild gold light in immeasurable delight
on leaf and branch
and slender blades of dew-kissed forest grass,
your hand in mine,
and the dawn chorus
bringing Heaven’s
sacred hymns of joy
to this forest garden
as the day seeps in.

What a beauty.

Ah yes, ushering in the dawn--that red-glow from the light on the mountain that you share with your loved one--and us.

Thanks for the share,
