From the welkins of breaking dawn Light emerges through the cracks Golden emollient bursting through the crevices Bangles of dazzling color in nature’s lac As the dazed passion of morn girdles round me In the vertigo of ecstasy, I stay afloat Unfettered become all the shackles and pinions Pintucked to my trembling boat Falling from the azure ocean of sky Diamond droplets of dew plunge into the peachy pool of my flesh Bring back recollections of a memory A sea of burning persimmons and reds, blazing fresh I thought I died in winter But this memory makes me rethink Of all the twilights when you set me alight Inside the fiery cauldron of your gaze, without blink When I lay slumped in the dead slumber In teppenwitz graves of my mini-deaths You loved me back to life Awakening catacombs with the warm gust of your breath It would be unjustness if I deny The glory of this breaking dawn that reminds me Of all the flowers you tickle
