The Book of Days
The dawn’s early light can be pleasure enough for the whole day.
There are words enough to tell the story of “the temptation of day to come.”
It is my delight to write some of them for your delectation.
Fanfare
A blazon of cinnamons
in the high eastern sky,
a syruped swirl of portents of day—
the star ascends to lofty lightening realms,
where heralds sound the trumps of dawn
to chase scant remnants of the night.
