I open the wrap
of dawn’s matins slowly
breathing a soft prayer
to the unseen sender
every day.
I open with my trembling hands
the darkest envelop
to find stars inside.
I thank the unknown sender softly
every night.

Nice one…
Each day is a gift, Sumana, and I love that you breathe your soft prayers ‘to the unseen sender’.
Love the gift of all the days that we are given.
Each day is truly a gift!
Oh how I love starry nights! And the promise of dawn each day 🙂
Opening the darkest envelope to find stars inside? Sigh. Just tooooooo gorgeous.
Such beautiful gifts to unwrap and marvel each day and night ~ Just too lovely for words, smiles !
Really beautiful. It’s the gifts of nature, the ‘matins’ of morning, those prayers which gift to him the stars of night. The best gifts of all. Lovely.
Gorgeous prayer! Lush and quiet.
I like the idea of thanking the unknown sender every night. I will have to remember to do that.
Makes me think of Elvis & his song, “Return to Sender”, for at some point that’s what each of us does. I love your discovery of stars in dark envelopes–the whole piece, despite its brevity, is deep & reverent.
A lovely piece of writing! 🙂
Beautiful!
Lovely write, Sumana ❤️
