Dawn arrives like a secret.
The first light slowly crawling across the ridges —
silent rivers of gold gently embracing the land.
Mountains awaken, edges kissed by the sun,
green valleys still dreaming.
The air is barely moving, charged with expectation.
And for a fleeting moment, I'm part of it all.
This is the morning I have dreamed of,
more than I ever dared to imagine,
the reason I've come all this way,
to find silence at the edge of the day.
And now it speaks.
