Awakening

Eerie. Quiet. Tranquil. 

A world forever changed.

Did we truly conquer you?

Lands trimmed by necessity;

Shaped for life, for being;

Dimmed, renewed, blue.

Hearts awake, again;

One heart torched to compassion anew.

We hear you in the silence,

We see you in the dawn-dew;

O what a time to be a-stirring.

We marvel in your morphing,

Applaud you in your purifying;

Would that we may learn from you

To go to sleep, and dawn again,

Awake

and new.
