The Still of Dawn

Awakenings, Poetic Healing

Colorful panoramic sunrise in the mountains landscape. Dramatic morning sky.

In the still of the dawn
When the haze of slumber is still upon the world
Creatures start to come alive
Light hints of its arrival on the horizon
Shadows seem to whisper to the moon
And to our hearts

Those of us who dare to rise so early
And take in the gentle stirrings of the ‘morn
Feel the veil lift from midnight’s spirits
As day turns into work, worry, and stress
With the occasional brush of wings on the back of a hand
A gentle reminder of the peace of dreams
And the freedom of the hazy dawn

Big Dreams

Awakenings, Poetic Healing

Earth and Sun

Big horizon
Big dreams
Little cries of hopelessness
Against far-off scenes

Dreams so real
Yet seemingly too big
Hope for some humanity
Set against the fires of change

Burning out of control
In the forest of our hearts
Taking whatever is in its path
Cleansing all we think we know

Heat can take down big dreams
If hope does not prevail
Kept safe in the cool waters of faith and love
And the vision of a distant horizon always there

Daily Bliss – December 19

Daily Bliss


The Angels want us to have the faith and hope in the world that they have in us.  They remind us that the sun is always shining somewhere. Sometimes we  have to broaden our horizons or simply peek through the clouds to feel its warmth.

The Angels remind us to keep our eyes on the bright sun on the horizon.  The day is not over, it’s only just begun.
