IN GRATITUDE

Hope benign
Dares to break
At the dawn

Streak of first
Golden rays
Bounce a touch

Chirping fill the ether
There it is born
Phoenix reborn

Handful of compassion
In gratitude, sticks
The palm straight

I close my eyes deep
And vision greets
From the sky peep

Now the Sun will
Take a chance
Will blaze the path

Now every stone
Sprout mountain
Every lotus, love

I can feel
All, that is;
And flow

Water seeps
Across crevices
Down the ocean deep

And the hope benign
Dares to break
At the dawn!
