Break Of Dawn Poem by Leo Yankevich

Break Of Dawn

Rating: 3.0


I rise at the break of dawn,
still dreaming, half awake,
wondering whether I’m gone;
but, the sun on the lake,

the ancient stones, the pine-trees,
and the mad hungry birds
(in a language without words
borne to me by the breeze)

softly utter, ‘No,
on and on you must go;
this life do what you can;
eternity has no end.’

Beautifully … poetic smothering insinuatingly lasts «Pastorale» by a life …
