Dawn

Morning sings with possibility's stirring song
rising to wash away the eve's doubts.
No eyes can see what isn't there,
but the heart can believe
in wish mirages that can come alive.

Bear a smile to greet the sun,
light will rise in the spirit,
till you pass on the warmth to another,
then they too shall feel the dawn.

    This is a beautiful, calm, poem you wrote. L3 and L4 were what captured me the most. "No eyes can see what isn't there, but the heart can believe"

    Revision pointers:
    - Your poem was not required to be ten lines long. I think your final word of "dawn" should be placed with the line about it, and then remove the comma between "the" and "dawn."

    I too like the early morning's dawn, moment of reflection, moment to inhale nature at it's best.
    Really liked your little rhyme.

    Warm and bright. While poetically this isn't really in my set, I could see what you were trying to do, bring a highlight to the reality that each new day is a gift.... and certainly that cannot be said enough. Best wishes in the contest.

    Good luck in your future works.
