“Morning carries its own storm, if you rise early enough to hear it.”
The dawn arrived differently now. No boats cut across the cove, no voices spilled into the night. Instead, the wild called in quieter ways, through the rustle of branches, the sudden flight of birds, the faint sound of footsteps where no one was seen. Rising early meant stepping into a world not yet touched by noise, a world that belonged to whispers.
It was here, in the sharp edge of morning air, that the echoes carried differently. Not from parties or crowded lawns, but through chance meetings, phone calls, and unexpected threads that tied lives together. The wild had not left with summer; it had shifted shape. It lingered in the forest paths, in the way names surfaced in conversations, in the way strangers became mirrors of something known.
The dawn had its own wildness, one that could not be seen but only felt, an undercurrent moving through silence, promising that what waits just beyond will always find a way to return.
The dawn does not rise in silence,
it whispers beneath the trees,
breath of shadows bending low,
calling through the leaves.
Wildness wears a softer face,
a chill across the skin,
a whisper where the world begins,
a storm that stirs within.
-Kerri-Elizabeth-
And as the morning deepened, the call grew sharper, as if the wild was waiting to reveal something hidden in the stillness.

Beautifully written!
