the sun rises
i resist waking
my warm bed
poetry, prose, and photography
the sun rises
i resist waking
my warm bed
This grey morning light
Falls deftly through morning sky
Clouds from the ocean
This new day begins
Filled with opportunity
As the daylight grows
Yes, I am awake
And the birds sing with vigor
Dawn has not yet come
I’m amazed at the number of birds singing right now. Well, I think one of the loudest sounds is an insect, but I digress. It’s quite boisterous. Oddly, as daylight comes their sounds will quiet. Perhaps just supplanted by human noise. Perhaps.
Light flows across my blinds
Bird dialog strikes my ears
My room’s emptiness
Speaks to my past
And my future
The darkness waning
Hints of blue sky beckoning
This day, beginning
