Dance a Life

Tail end of night I have woken in
thoughts begin of you,
my fire feeds happily
while the kettle warms.

I am waiting I am waiting
at the unfolding of the dawn,
for the sight upon your face
of a smile being born.

senses clouds are lifting
opportunity is dawn,
fresh canvas for the easel
new horizon to explore.

sunlight on the water
wavelets lapping at the shore,
free skinned sailors of forever
dance a life that they adore.
