O Come, Thou Dayspring

I love the word dayspring.  Since we rarely use it, it has not become tethered to particular meanings.

Definition 3:

So many images

Come to mind:

Sudden water

In the desert,

Bursting light

On the horizon,

Long awaited,

Long hoped-for.

The crows caw outside,

Fly branch to branch;

The snow melts to prepare

For new snow

Over the weekend,

A promised white blanket

For the new Baby.

Dayspring comes

In so many forms

So many images.

Some water

Some snow

Some light

Even

Some crows.
