Dawnings

Next moment

By Nicholas Hooper

is like the last but with tiny differences
as we move in time on the circle that is our world
hoping for more of what makes us most happy
but perhaps it is the next moment that we are waiting for

About Dawnings:
“Every morning at around 5am I get up and go down to my studio. After a short meditation I write down whatever is in my head, giving myself fifteen minutes to do so. Then moving over to the piano (or a more portable instrument like my Ukulele when I'm away), I improvise and record a piece of music inspired by whatever words I just wrote. It is a great way of keeping both my writing and my composing going and I call these small creations Dawnings. They are mostly unedited, like sketches, so that they keep that fresh feeling of an early morning discovery.”
