Morning

Little people stood around And whispered at the sky You must have seen it as did I The word was so profound Where’d it come from I don’t know I’ve never seen the like And lighting up the night so bright I even saw it glow At that moment I awoke To rapturous applause Abruptly stopping without cause And then the word it spoke My body’s made of letters That flesh my meaning out My name, that one’s inclined to shout Feeling so much better Who am I? I hear you ask Important as I am Is this another horrid scam So you fulfil some task Rest assured, I beseech you Fear not what I will say My name is MORNING here today Arise and start anew

What more could I ask for today? It is a beautiful day the sun shining and birds singing. I am reading your poetry in which you share a little of yourself maybe without even realizing it you have written from your soul. Thank you for sharing your awesome poetry with us David. Love, Carol
