The Day Hatched


The day hatched;
Splattering colors;
Singing along with wonder and joy;
Cracking the horizon – in a widening smile;
Thanking the moon – for a job well done;
Before gobbling up every scrap of darkness in the sky.


Be well,

Monty

      Thanks Michelle!!! It’s one of the rare poems that I spent time contemplating for quite a while…over a month between initial conception and realization. I’m doing well! Currently in Thailand on holiday. Rainy but beautiful.
