Canteloupe sky
behind a palm tree
jostles my eyes
awake. The remnant
of last night's disappointment
shrinks as the sun
peeks from behind
the fronds. A new day
winks. My eyes fill
with possibilities,
again. The fragrance
of hope is a sunrise.
It's just too bright.
I close my eyes,
wait for you to wake up.
I become less and less.

The sun can cause worry..too much pressure..maybe today won't be good enough..'I' won't be good enough..yet there's always a chance it will be ok..the day may wink at us teasingly but it will always carry us through to glorious bed time..Jae
There's a glimmer of hope, but the thought of more sleep is more reassuring, this takes me back into my subconscious.
I enjoyed this poem very much. I like this line
" The fragrance
of hope is a sunrise"
The thought before the sun gets to bright and doubts sneak in. Thank you.
I will echo Ellecee, my favorite line as well.
ah how sad that she becomes less,
the fragrance of hope is sunrise -
so true. lovely.
The sadness of a failing relationship is gradually revealed in the words as she wakes up to the day and that realization. A beautiful poem.
I adored the forward, upward momentum of this piece, until that last line! You stunned me!
I love it but that last line just doesn't go well with the rest of the poem...
A lovely word picture, a good use of your three words.
With the upcoming Feelies shows and new album and
the amazing Wire gig past week, who knew this connection?
