The landscape of night
and dream dissolves
like vapor off the river,

morning’s pale light
reaching into the world
with a message
in the color of sky
and sound of birds,

urging us to arise
and join the living.

 

Join the Living

  1. I really enjoy the depth of your multiple meanings. “Arise and join the living” is an ever intensifying invitation expressed by an ever expanding body of people who have done just that. Ta!

  2. Thank you, Don. Wakefulness is so joyful. Morning breaks each morning, like the first morning.

  3. This one captures me in one of those far away places of reverie, Don…..and also presages my upcoming journey from Spain to Ireland in a coupla days…….
