Ink black morning Before false dawn And false life begins To corrode the coming day, Wrap me now in solitude Leaving the edges untucked The final knots untied So that if I decide to stretch, Shrugging off the blanket of isolation I can free myself from your Comforting embrace. The sun always rises… And brings with it the day, Filled in its stretch from Rise to set, with some semblance Of honor or pale reflection of integrity To be decided in struggle with Demanding expectations Paraded before your eyes Ink black morning Hide me again, but leave the edges Untucked and free, for in few more minutes I must stretch and shrug off your comfort |

Ah, the feelings of this are felt by many, but not always expressed quite so well... Bravo! |

methinks you're talking to more than the morning...but yourself and your loved-one as well am I close? |

You stretch my imagination with every word you pen my friend. Now get up and stretch, letting that blanketing isolation fall by the wayside as you walk this land with head high in grand anticipation of life. Phew! You DO inspire one |

Cpat--It is important to have space to stretch...But, sometimes I'd just like to stay in the comfort of all tucked in. I enjoyed your poem! |

To dream, perchance to never want to awaken into the cold dark reality of life. Wanting to, but so lost in the wonder of fantasy...... ahhhhhhh!!!!! I may not have the right meaning to this... but, it carried me away to a place where I've been before. Enveloped in soft light. See what this work of poetic art has done to me? It has me afloat on a soft breeze. I applaud with much admiration~ Love and peace ((~.~)) |

an enjoyable read, like the subject matter, another yawn and self debate, to rise or snooze and be late Gloom |
