Oh dawning sun of my soul

Erase arid illusions and make me whole.

Author's Note

Arise, oh dawning sun of my soul;
Erase arid illusions and make me whole.
Sense the brushed incantations of van Gogh;
Conjuring this City of Lights in indigo.

Flaring from the stars rose a hymn,
In its muted melody my mind did swim.
The chorus transformed into a lullaby,
Mesmerizing mist of a migrating butterfly.

It is amazing how art and music can inspire us in the most profound and mesmerizing ways. The colors and the scenery invoking ideas.

It is true... they lift us... move us... inspire hope and light... so glad you're a part of all that.
