DAWN

Primal poet,
woman of the world.
Elegant goddess,
a child-like girl.
Satisfied hunger
of riches so deep.
The rising of dawn,
falling asleep.
A watchful eye
caressing the land.
Spiritual teardrops
fall from your hands.
Light-filled souls,
ageless and bare,
Searching the darkness
for someone to care.
A realm of laughter
to fill up the sky.
The way to freedom
is held in your eye.
Travel so blindly,
you must find your way.
Elope in the sadness
before night turns to day.

(c) Amber Bassett
