I wake, it’s still dark
tangible silence still, dark
blackbird summons dawn

How does it happen?
Wake up thinking of haiku
Time to get out more

Over in the East
palest, thin line of pink sky
woken too early

pulled back by pale rising sun
waking valleys yawn

tongues of green grasses
tipped with fresh, cool morning dew
such sweet tasting dawns
