the first brush of light raids the night

morning dew consumes this world’s antecedent

perhaps I will go on a walkabout, deep within the forest

______

my spirit is intrigued by the brightest of greens; visions which visit my dreaming mind

until I return; reveries shall lie dormant

perhaps I will go on a walkabout, deep within the forest

_______

o’ sleep old soul! For you, I do cry

I beg and plea; I have prayed to fall back asleep upon this morning

perhaps I will go on a walkabout, deep within the forest

________

in the stillness of night, the stars do shine

peforming bright until the sun lightens earth’s firmament

the first brush of light raids the night

_________

the air is sharp on the skin, piercing and quick; A brisk moment in time

revolving around a flare of brillance

perhaps I will go on a walkabout, deep within the forest

_________

awoken by the mirrorlike light satisfying the sky

nature declares love for such eminence

the first brush of light raids the night

perhaps I will go on a walkabout, deep within the forest

    Perhaps I will go on a walkabout (or readabout) to view your lastest poems. Great stuff! Another great poet is on Triond.
