Gentleness

in the quiet light of pre-dawn mist,
choirs of silence rise and fall
within the orb of shadow's womb,
waiting for songs of hope's last call.

through all the pain, both harsh and cruel,
pure gentleness responds to all
the piercing violence of fell mood
with humble meekness despite death's pall.
