Pelicans at Dawn

Before the sun rises over the still waters,
the faint golds begin to leech over the edge
of the world and spread like a stain
over the raven black of the night sky.
The small birds grow restless, excited;
the pelicans awaken and take to the air,
soaring silent but imposing over my head
as I go about the beginning of my day.
