Morning Blinds

 The gray mist of dawn
holds back the light
awaiting the song of
the mourning doves
soothing coo-coo

slow, sleepily the dreamer
awakens in the stillness
of the softening fringes
between yawning moon
and winking sunlight

lifting the morning blinds
greeting the new day

Golden Light of Dawn

Today, I thought of you and days gone past
our zany adventures into the unknown
dreamy visions , poetry enthusiasts
collecting our pouches of healing stones
never knowing how long the quest would last
on feather light wings our spirits have flown
following the rhythmic beat of bird song
rays of hope, in the golden light of dawn
