All of my senses are met by the morning
As
I awake
breathing in a new day,
Here
by the
window I opened last evening,
How
the world
changed while I drifted away.
Darkness
is gone, though it seemed it would never;
Sunlight
is
smiling and nature survives.
I
can believe
that we all live forever
When
I
observe how the morning arrives.
Birds
sing their concert and children are playing;
Flowers
have
scented the air and it’s free;
Life
is
renewed and it seems to be saying
There
is a
place in its promise for me.
There
are some times in our lives when we savor
Being
a part
of a much larger plan.
Life
is a
feast and we each add a flavor;
I’ll
make it better, believing I can.
