CHAPTER 3: THE MORNING SUN

CHAPTER 3: THE MORNING SUN

A Sequel of the Twilight and the Raining Before the Break of Dawn

By: Josephine Luz de Leon

The magnificent glowing rays of the sunset makes the morning birds sweetly chirp and the flowers dance seemingly like they’ve longed to feel the warmth. The wet soil starts to dry as it was moistened by the evening rain. The wind was so delicate and soothing and that brings inspiration for the whole day’s tasks. It is a sweet promising morning.

During the twilight, she excitedly sat and waited for the growing sunrays. As the light became clearer, her vision followed. The stiffness brought by the cold raid and breeze was gradually coated by the warm sun. And now, the long wait is over.

She found herself giggling as she remembers the dream she had when she was sleeping. She slept when the night was old. She was tired then. And the exhausting night made her deeply asleep. She remembers that someone peeped in her dream brought her home and kiss her goodnight. She knows her subconscious body smiled. And when she woke up on that twilight, she felt the excitement for the morning sun. …and that is because of the man who existed in that dream.

She walks freely and graciously over the garden and observes the beauty of the flowers, enjoys the songs of the chirping birds, and feels the comforting touch of the wind. Everything is relaxing. Everything gives a good aura…almost everything. She’s been waiting for this! She does not know how long she had waited. This morning wraps her with a glowing hope.

This certainly marks a new day and so a new journey. Though the fear that traumatized her during the evening is still there, she remains fighting and hoping to overcome it. She needs to move on. All the reasons are in her hands now. All she needs to do is smile, walk and continue. And that what she does.

One hour after her walk. Her dream comes true. Comes a man who touches her heart and washes away her fears. Comes a man whom she finds as an answer to her prayer…He is a heaven’s sent.

As they converse, the man said,

“When can I say, you and I?” Simple yet it touches her heart to find a man who wants her to call “mine.”

She seeks and rushes over her heart.  And she said,

“Despite my fears, I welcome you,
For love is found within my heart;
And I promise to continue loving you.” 

Your sweetness causes my smiles and laughter;
Your words, I carry, I won’t get lost;
Your love is a gem that I treasure most.

This early morning, they hold hand. Walk together and hopes for a joyful day…a forever in a day.

Deep within her heart, she whispered,

Now that you truly came into my life;
I still have a prayer, I solemnly ask,
To be with you, forever and a day;
And turning back won’t find its way.

The man kisses her lips and claims a promise,

“I will never leave you and I promise I will love you till the end of time.”

It is indeed a sweet morning full of promise...a brand new journey that requires courage to face another trials and circumstances that may come within the day. And yet she decided to commit again…with full love and sincerity.

She remains fearful to face the noontime and the coming of the afternoon. But then, only faithful and true love can also calms her heart. In time, all the fears will cease and only trust will remain…in time… and hopefully she will find all the strength before the noontime. The Noontime sun brings too much heat and sometimes burn even the toughest. She hopes to be prepared…with the man she loves. She prays to be with this man in all her undertaking…in all her successes and failures. In everything, she prays to have a companion, a partner, a love, no matter what time of the day…no matter how easy or tough are the challenges. No matter what… no matter where…no matter when.

This very morning, let her enjoy the morning.  Savor its happiness, glory and blessings with her man. Let her love…for her love is true...for her love is pure… for her love commits eternity…for her love knows what love really is.
