shafts of sunlight
slicing cobwebs of sleep
whispers of dawn

Carpe Diem Haiku Kai #1387

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep.

You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep.

People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.

The door is round and open.
Don’t go back to sleep.
