Before Dawn

“The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Don’t go back to sleep.” – Rumi

Crickets and streetlights fade into birdsong and morning hues.
Darkness yields to dawn— and with it, the quiet promise of possibility.

Your breath syncs with your footsteps on the earth.
Cool air fills your lungs,
meeting the warm sweat of early effort.

In the simplicity of morning—
before the world stirs—
you find clarity,
you feel free,
you remember what matters.
