Whispered Dawn

The brighter shade of gray announced the dawn.

 

Heavy drizzle saturated the ground. 

 

Sustenance is a good thing. 

 

A doe awoke, stood, stretched,

and slipped away from the edge of the clearing. 

Her companion rose from the tall grasses

and followed her into the woods.

With a whisper, a new day begins.

 

Good morning, LORD.
