The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don't go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep.

  1. Perfect morning poem. Ask for what you want. Don't go back to sleep.

    So glad you took that book.

    Love you.

  2. I'm not sharing this poem with my children until they're willing to wake up sometime after 6:30, though, okay?
