Arising On a Poetic Morning
arising on a poetic morning...
as the sharp rays
of sunlight
meticulously sliced
through lingering clouds
to sculpt away the web of darkness
of night
i broke off a piece of time
and used its jagged edges
to scrape away the corroded pain
of doubt
today I will
pull out words
and paint images of life
on a paper canvas---
chisel out a song of love
and feel and smell
the warm breath of God
soothing my sweet serene soul
Would if you would---arise
come journey with me
in the ecstasy of a poetic odyssey---
wandering the Odin-like caverns
of the fertile womb
of my mind’s coming
to meet the morning’s dawning.
