Unaware

Unaware

A Poem by Cherrie Palmer

I know you’ve been waiting on me,

for your splendid light to see.

But in this haze, it could not be.

Till this morning unaware,

your brilliant light lifted my despair.

As salmon pink skimmed the shore,

and your warming glow filled the moor.

The endless night now was gone,

And a bright Winter’s Day followed the dawn.

Dear friend, tis said we can find our own remedies.. and see how true that can be. Dawn's gradual arrival is utterly breath-taking. Your words suggest what is found in the dawn - Light, takes its time.. but once found is there with and for a searching but hopeful spirit. Here to hold hands...

A wonderful poem.

Thank you Pat ever so much.
They do have a habit of doing that, don't they? Those never ending nights always have such bright, clear dawns to help lift us back up, just when we need it the most.
Beautifully written Cherrie.
