Dawn

Dawn the milkmaid descends
From yonder hills
Her pitcher brimming with
Fresh frothing daylight

I hear the jingling
Of her bangles and her anklets
The birds in the arbor
Some in my garden

She stops by my doorstep
And measures and pours out
A pure new day into the waiting bowl
Of my time on this earth
