Dawn



The sun's rays
begin to emerge
after the Darkest of Nights.
They spill in golden-colored shafts
across the horizon
at the Dawn of a Brand New Day~
banishing the regrets,
fears,
and heartaches
that came with The Night.
Quietly...
the Day breaks
releasing
all the Possibilities,
Hope,
and Opportunities
that this New Day can hold.
A Gift to open-
if you choose to accept.
I marvel at the Wisdom of the Dawn~
to start anew each day
No Matter What~
and I take that Message
and think about it...
mull it over
and really try
to apply it to myself-
wanting so badly
to Dance in the light
of the Golden Dawn...
this Golden Dawn
that will break and shine
whether I'm ready or not.

This week's prompt at OSI is Dawn. Please see how others have interpreted this prompt by visiting this site. Have a wonderful week!

"A Gift to open-

So beautifully put. Yes, choice to dance or to despair is ours.

Thanks for reminding.
