The Ottava Rima
: Early Morning Wonder by adewpearl
Wonderment or Mystery contest entry


As sunlight streams through early morning mist
and dawn removes the ebon veil of night,
my doubts encased in darkness are dismissed,
misgivings chased away by gleaming light.
How could disquietude or fear persist,
illuminated by a star so bright?
I gaze upon my world in wonderment,
resplendent in the glow of sun's ascent.
