Dawn Stillness

 

In the still of the morning,

while the dew still lies upon

the leaf, I rise,

slipping out of camp before

others awaken.

 

The forest listens, steeped

in slanting rays,

and I listen

with bated breath.

 

Slowly, the forest

gives up her secrets with

soft stirrings in the brush:

tiny animals awaken, and

quest for food, and

a doe nibbles at tender twigs.

 

I watch, feeling more

a brother, than intruder.

A new day brings

new mysteries

from an old way of life.

 

Dallas D'Angelo-Gary 08

This poem reminds me a little of one I wrote last year about an early morning walk. Like this very much, Dallas, particularly the lines

'I watch, feeling more
a brother, than intruder.'

That's how I feel, too.

We could learn so much from those who came before us about appreciating the God-given nature around us...

There are those times in the late evening and in the early morning...when you can feel it...that strong connection to nature...and you've described it so well, Dallas.

I love it. I feel the same way about nature. Like "I'm a friend", no need to be startled. I love that early hour stillness too. Nice mood here.
