Usha

Hush and dream.

I am the Dawn.

I wake all sleeping.

Look to the dark to see Me born,

glorious miracle of sight,

pale blush, and then a rush, a flush,

blossoming from the bud of night,

opening like a peacock tail.

All the birds usher Me, and throng.

I am the joy that’s always new.

I end all weeping and all wrong.

I am the love that will not fail.

I reassure you.

Wait for the strength to carry on.

Wait, and I’ll come; I’ll come to you.

Open your heart, your mind, your eyes.

Open and see My beauty rise.

Open to meet My radiant light.

Greet Me with song.

Let Me dawn in you

as wisdom and courage.

I illuminate

with blaze of red

the way ahead.
