Dancing into Morning


With morning
comes the lightness
the diffuse
creeping dawn
gently announcing a new day

Happy knees will still bend
arms still raise
I bound from the bed
and dance into its embrace

for a moment

and then I surrender
back to gravity
falling into the warmth
that cocooned me
in the night

Bed

    1. Marilyn, Wow - what a blessing to read your message - I continue to marvel at the wonder of our age that separated by so much physical distance, we can be so connected. What a lucky woman am I to have such friends! Peace, Beth

  2. If you haven't already, you MUST consider publishing a book of your poetry! Seriously.. Marilyn
