The still of the morning, the color of the night

[starlinsey]

I went outside at 5:10am this morning.

And it was soooooo beautiful.

There is something about the night sky just before dawn... it's still dark, but the earth knows the morning is coming, and all of the world draws in a deep breath and holds...

and everything is still and peaceful and cool and calm

ethereal

I remember feeling beautiful in the breath

Actually, I hadn't intended it to be a poem, but thank you so much! :o)

I love your posts. Just ran into your journal and started remembering all those amazing emotions taking over me when i had to study all night. Every time i felt so strong, happy, melancholic, full of love and utter sadness. It sounds weird, but at those moments i would feel more optimistic than ever. So, thanks for reminding me :-)

It doesn't sound weird at all-- I totally totally agree with you. All the conflicting emotions... you think they'd cancel each other out, but that's not what happens at all-- it's like each one becomes 'more'.

I hope you are having a good day! :o) Thanks for the nice compliment!
