something's waking
by
Mike Bayles
something's waking to the call of day
day and dew glisten under the fall of dawn's light
light awakens dreams and sheds the cloak of darkness
darkness gives way to anticipation
anticipation stirs the heart and soul
heart and soul hear the wind
wind sweeps the grounds
grounds hold memories of those past
past lives captured on memorials
memorials taken in reverence
reverence is the whisper of the divine
divine is the span of life
life is the pursuit of dreams
dreams enlighten day
day calls when something's waking
