The morning steals upon the night,
Melting the darkness — Shakespeare
In the dim pre-morning
when most are just
entering REM sleep,
we wake and begin
slow and gentle steps,
stretching, opening
our hearts in faith
as He brings us into
the promise of dawn,
and we say
in unison with
the first birdsong,
This is the day
the Lord has made;
we will rejoice
and be glad in it.
