This morning burns bright

Sheltered from it at my desk

A breeze blows gently

I’ve grown quite weary 

All the invective tiring 

It’s all lost on me

In the dark pre-Dawn

All the birds now come to life 

Nature’s opulence

And now we are free

Embrace it with great reverence

Birds flit between trees

I hate depression 

It crushes us from within 

With its brutal lies

From sun into shade 

Purple bursts in the dark green 

A break from the sun

Daylight moves westwards

Yet the sun up quite high 

The birds are still bold

Getting To Win-Win

You can’t get win-win 

By being driven by your fears 

Only love drives this

Seeking elegance 

Not a garish consumption 

But deep quality
