awakened to the stillness
two hours past the midnight hour
the silence of the yet dark early morning
awakened to the lunar light of the winter solstice
pulsing corona
embracing hues of crystalline gray, blue and violet
drawn I to this orb of luminous lure
awakened to the soft feel of the cold wind upon my face
to the journey of clouds
to the fullness of the shedding light
the towering oak casts a shadow
quiver it does upon the garden walk
and I in shadow cast
awakened
awakened.
