New Dawn


I agreed to participate in a photo-poetry group where we would post a photo and a poem and a note on process every day for 2008. Already it is the 12th January and I have photos and notes but find it hard to navigate the message-chains in yahoo so have decided to do it on my blog. In order to catch up, I will also post something from the earlier days.

Last night I was insomniac and having my period, this morning I woke at 8am - by the church clock chiming - and saw this mackeral sky. Here's my poem and photograph.

The sky is streaked with blood
The earth is aching for light
The dawn never fails us
This is the moment when love is brightest.
