A Rising Dawn



A Rising Dawn

When I see ...
the Sun float in the Sky
like a small dot hot n bold
I observe in a broken me,
A wave of feelings unfold

As I listen
Sitting over the black rock
To the ocean's ambient noise
I feel it resonate thru my body
To have me hear my inner voice

Then I feel …
Across the sand of the shores,
The smooth moist ocean breeze ...
It Reminds me ever and again
That settle in my life, I should ease

As I ponder
Over my mad wreckless past
I know that I've done the right
That I've always loved this world
Like a ...
pattern of waves in black and white

I call upon myself
That To this fast green cash
I must make an intelligent quit
That to settle with my love
I will have to try just a little bit
