for the night we confused as day
g-d
who
listens
thank you
for giving me
a body
that marks
the difference
between
night and day
all life long
have i been told
worship the dawn of another
hide the darkness of your secret seeing soul
trapped in my body
waiting by the window
longing to catch a glimpse of myself
behind Your Cloud present and bold
but no longer
do i wonder
no longer do i wait
for in me
i have found a dawn
removed from the absence of another
and in this time
a new season
a greater heaven
a body unresigned to fate
o g-d of noticing
and knowing
thank you
g-d for appointing me
to this task of
feeling alive
for this
great work
and body
i am forever made awake
and wise!
