First
Light
by
Amethyst
this moment of
forever
holds nothing more essential
than bright wind dancing
leaf shadows over you
while you sleep
this is the morning
of the world
the first morning I know you
in all the years
of dawns neither of us saw
this is a time
of no regrets
only awakenings
this is the forever
the heart creates
shimmering iridescent mist
that hides and reveals
play of light and shadow
on our lives
this is the first
morning
I look at you complete
without question
dreaming peacefully there
the slow rise and
fall
of your breathing smiles
sharing the secret
with my exultant heart
