no ordinary feeling

before the night
is scattered
by the first embrace of dawn
for moments then
I float in half awake
with thought to more
than earthly care
visions passed between -

- nothing
I’m prepared
to give away

(eternity)
a moment come
and always at my will
no ordinary feeling
wraps me sweet
within the still

alone in this surrender;
more than breath -
or hands to hold
love that has no measure
comes as solace
to my soul

sun that begs
these seeds to bloom
lures my sleepy eyes to sight
awakens me
as silence (once and still) -
love again (as I have loved)
brings me warm
into the light
