Dawn

Morning beckons,
And I rise with the Sun
Its tangerine glow making everything gleam.
Even huge skyscrapers soften their edges.

The silence is unearthly.
Tendrils of anticipation thread through it,
As if the dawn itself is preparing for the day,
And waiting for the first signs of life.

Cheep! Cheep!
Chirp Chirp!
The birds sing each other awake
From inside emerald trees

Vroosh!
Cars fly by, expelling unsavory fumes
They smell of petrol
A memento to remember them by.

Every block is seen anew
Every day I wake.
Parks and blacktop,
The contrast never ends
As will my love of this city.
