sunrise.
...and what are the words one uses to describe a compilation?, works from my entire life?, fifty years of carrying around a yellow pad?, fifty years of writing and rewriting, changing the words, as their meanings change for me?
Constructive criticism regarding any of my work, always welcomed, appreciated and read with an open heart.

first kiss of light,
sweet smell of the air,
dew in the grass,
song from the birds,
from this we get morning.
no other part of the day
is quite so sweet
none other so brief,
a chance to start anew.
the pristine sunrise.
that reoccurring gift,
lasting just a few moments,
that we take so for granted
often sleeping right through.
