Sunrise from My Bedroom Window

Unpaywalled rerun from a year ago (16 Feb 2024)

Kennewick, Washington Sunrise — photo by the poet

After Wordsworth

The rising sun as seen beyond and through
              My neighbor's tree, its resurrection
                          For me and you
                     A corrective of the insurrection
            Of time and time's unyielding loss
That strikes me now as it has not before
                      Knowing what I know
                          Of morning's glow
Before I dress and step outside my door.
