AwakeningA Poem by Kristin LeeGreeted by the breaking dawn Dogged, eager, greedy in its persistence Its touch is radiant, bright, deliciously unadulterated -This is an awakening
Hear the wild cries of an untamed soul As it seeks safe passage through rocky shoals Never asking, yet with stoic grace - Always knowing the way With eyes wide open the bow plunges into uncharted waters As Captain of this mighty vessel I swear, I will not falter Thick layers of salt may corrode tender flesh, but I can see -Nothing lasts forever Sweet, hot breath rife with life passes Heavens lips Peeling back my hearts cocoon leaving me exposed I am a petulant pearl of innocence -Fresh as the day I was born © 2013 Kristin LeeAuthor's Note
