Aubade Two

Scott Andrew Bailey

By Scott Bailey © 2015

Dawn sneaks over the hills
Light spills through the vales
And the veils of the window

I see beauty at last
Complicated, unfathomable, mystery
But right and true

Most the world walks by
Seeing a different way
This morning gives me hope

But the light washes out
Shadows darken veils
Traditions bear down

The beauty and the mystery
The reason and the truth
Are left behind again

The door is closed again
As ancient lore and law
Return us to the night

  2. “Dawn sneaks over the hills
    Light spills through the vales
    And the veils of the window

    I see beauty at last
    Complicated, unfathomable, mystery
    But right and true” … I too, understand this well. I only write poetry in the morning. Where light opens many doors! Such a sage write you have created. Quite stunning really! … To the house of bailey!
