AS THE DAY RETURNS

this is light
shining in angles oblique
shining in angels ornate
and it sings
as though light had sound
speaks greetings with silent voice
walks slowly across floors and faces
warms truly as flame
for summer grass
or winter frost
stays faithful to purpose
crowing calls to it
sparrows sing to it
the darkness falls away
retreating from it's reign
it is the sun's turn
breaking over the arc of the earth
it is always sunrise
somewhere

Aubade Poetry

How many of you have seen the movie "City of Angels" and remember the scenes where the angels gather in the morning. Perhaps this meeting can be considered an Aubade. An Aubade is a poem or song that greets the morning, or where wild life celebrates, or lovers wake, and sometimes waking to reluctantly part.
