Dawn

You,
you feed me your breath;
blow me up 
and over
distilled 
Past.

You,
you remind me
that horizons 
are resilient. 
Every dawning... 
life.
Life's precious 
celebrations.

I,
I'm alive.
I am this echo 
of this beautiful
ancestry,
this beautiful 
ancestry.

Remind me.
opp-or-tun-i-ties.
Pre-cise-ly,
grav-i-ty.

how 
how I sow 
how I sow these seeds
how I sow this soil
when You
when you offer me truth
offer forgive-ness 
offer to grow
offer to grow
grow
grow
