Watch the slow, silver
approach of dawn.
Arms of leafless trees arched
and etched in silhouettes.
Waiting for the birth
of this brand new day.
Anticipating color,
seeking soft, lavender fog,
and the first notes of birdsong
before they're sung,
and the simple gifts of creation
waiting to be opened
as soon as they arrive.
