DAWN WITH YOU
Dawn depends on you. Whenever you hope to see it, dawn floats. Whenever you decide to see it, dawn shines. Like a rainbow reflected in a frozen puddle, like the scent of coffee in winter morning, like sounds of fallen leaves, dawn warms you whenever you hope it.
AMBIVALENCE
The ruby of summer is about to rise from the spring-colored horizon. My left fingertips want the vehement hopes, but my eyelids full of spring never want the burning despair. My left hand writes summer, but my eyes see spring. My notebook is waiting for summer, but my brain never lets spring go.
