There she stood in the junction
of the earth and sky
watching the horizon
that overcame the night
And in its presence,
the silhouettes of life
There she stood in the earth's choice
She looked back at the shadows
that appeared in it's decision
The offing of the sea now called her name
The consequences of night
were now overcome obstacles
She moved at ease
In the safe boundary of day
Walking through the cold dense air
left behind by the night
And there she waited to be hugged
by the warmth of the slow rising sun.
