Daybreak

Skies start to lighten

earth below still in shadow,

as night becomes day.

In late May, on Monhegan Island, the crack of dawn came mighty early! I was up at 4:30am and out in the cool, crisp air, seeking yet discovered hiking trails. It was a wonderful time of day,  quiet, peaceful and beautiful.  I awaited the sounds of morning, anticipating what the day would bring.
