Dawn unfolds a hush of amber
Pulling night from distant seas
Every gleam across the water
Stirs a memory on the breeze
Waves remember how you lingered
How your laughter kissed the air
Every crest holds quiet tremors
Of the warmth you used to wear
Time drifts slow along the shoreline
Gathering seashells of the past
Every echo breaks in rhythm
Showing what was built to last
Morning lifts its gold from silence
Painting hope where shadows run—
Every color finds its rising
When your name wakes the horizon
