Early Birds

 
Those zany ones 
crack of dawn risers -
  riders, walkers, swimmers, pray-ers!
All ye circadian first responders
Aloha!
Wherever you may be or who
when the cock crows in the Dawn.
 
When that mystic veil between the worlds is thinned;
the naturally dying ones can easily hop
over the quantum interface with their final breath
whilst newborns crown 
and take their first.
 
Ahura Mazda rising in the East
on the lip of our spinning globe -
is as much a sign of new beginning
and fresh start as any mega other:
new day, minute, life, stage, era
or relative end.
 
Is the birds early twitter, just chatter
about breaking-the-fast opportunity
and/or experiential psalms of praise
their throats, channels for pure joy?
