Day doesn't break

The eye of morning

brings its dawn of perspective

at the retreat of night.

Shadows grow coloured skins

and the birdsong clamour,

which dispelled the night,

distills to pastoral gentility.


Day doesn't break

but grows to maturity

with growing hues,

as nightcreatures slip into retreat

and dayshift light dwellers

slide from night shelter warmth

to adventure.


Day doesn't break,

it opens like hungry beaks

or petals unfurling with the return of light.


Day doesn't break,

but reveals itself

as a whisper of God.
