MORNINGS

My favorite time of day, early mornings The sun moves slowly and gently through the open door and window panes Shadow trees dance upon the floor, just for me The Sparrow calls out-a lone voice from the Crabapple Tree Even the traffic sounds are muted The pleasant whirring of tires meeting Asphalt The weather is cool still, as the sunbeams shoo away the morning clouds The shadow Trees are slipping away The Sparrow has moved on The traffic sounds…like traffic The coffee maker beeps a warning it’s job is done for the morning The heat arrives like coiling tendrils, Choking out the chill Morning makes way for day
