'To My Favorite Luminous Darkness'

Hello, Moon
It's nearly sweet morn again
And I thought I should write to you.
And the clock, it reads, lonely four fifty-two,
As the birds sing their dulcet tunes.

And I lie here in my white bed of clouds
As the sky sails--black to rich blue.
And the stars--twinkling, surrounding,
You are long overdue
Tossing--turning, I am long overdue

So set now--surrender, my luminous friend
So I can sleep in the new morning dew
Let's let go, let's pass out, let us fall from the sky
Up with suns, down with stars
Goodnight, Moon.

'5:15 -- Blue Sunrise'

And you know that you're my favorite time of morning
Because I know that no one else sees you alive
And the sky sees you the color of the ocean
In tropic hues--momentous paradise.

And the angels give the robins their first chirpings
So they can wake the trees with holy tunes
And the trees, they stretch their stalks out to the sunrise
And the earthworms burrow, praying for the moon.

And here I lie, solely, sleepless, waiting
Because my eyes are all wrapped up in you
You know that you're my favorite time of morning
And there's all the time I need to sleep till noon.
