There is a purpose

In everything

Waking at dawn

Opening eyelids

Making sense of space

Casting warm linen aside

Touching soft pillows

Letting dreams sleep

A little longer

Putting a safety blanket away

Cleansing the body

Of night impurities

Brushing back

Unruly wisps of hair

A purpose

In raising the blinds

Opening shut windows

Inviting daylight in

To power the mind

Unlock the thoughts

Bring the sky closer

And wonder

What lies behind all

That vastness, probability

Where mystery and fate

Begin a journey into the unknown
