October 22nd

 

before dawn the world

stands silent bar the fox steps

a puff of breath dies

I woke up early this morning, not by choice, couldn’t get back to sleep. 4.30am, I savoured that truly magical time before dawn where people are sleeping, but out in the fields; adventures, life and death, survival. To me it was a silent time, but outside I knew things stirred and died.
