Sunrise

 Sunrise here, you sleepfive thousand miles of sea of life, of memory divide: I used to thinkI need…. But now I understandI hold all in my hand this living beating earththis air I breathe. Sunrise here & over thereyou dream each night we talk oflife & love…….. I used to thinkI need but now the pieces of myselfare nestled in my hand; that little girl, thatgrieving whorl the centuries of pain,are mine & mine alone for now I know I’ll bethe best that I can be, to live againto watch the spin of earth & sunrisethrough the trees is all I really needfor living.
