No shadow of turning

 


The eternal dawn

doesn't wait on time,
doesn't need the earth's rolling
or the stars aligning
or the tumblirs of human machinations
to click into place

The eternal dawn first gleams,
then floods, its color
lighting up your hopes, its warmth
dispersing all your huddled fears

It doesn't wait on time,
it waits for you - patiently,
timelessly, here at this moment
when you feel its tender rays.
