Poem

Rise before the rooster that is caged in neighbor’s yard.

Hitting my knees before I open my eyes I offer up a dream prayer

            of thanksgiving.

Bump my knee hard against desk as I go into bathroom

            and just smile.

Teeth exposed I begin brushing them with white mint paste.

Fully wash sleep from eyes and begin collecting thoughts.

Put on running shoes and wrist watch and out the door I go.

Return in hour and watch a new sunrise breathe light onto a new Earth.

Reach for matchsticks and cigarettes.

After match is lit I smile and let cigarette fall from lips while I watch the short life

            of the new energy just born, bloom, and fade away.

Shower and dress and nothing extra.

Until I reach breakfast table with food for thought and food for body.

Given thanks I proceed out the door off to work.

Greeting everyone with a smile for I know they may have stubbed a

            toe or bumped a knee, too.

And I work hard as I can until it is time for lunch break.

Having had breakfast but not wanting to break my fast I go to the upper room and

            only have food for the soul, food which lasts.

Return to work and work with joy in my heart and a smile on my face.

Check date and time and dash off to school.

Watch as Sun begins his peek-a-boo game.

After class walk to library to continue studies.

Return home with head lights on and a thankful mind and thankful face on.

After a delicious dinner with maybe some dessert or better yet a good

            book I relax for an hour.

Then I undress and shower.

Hit my knees before jumping into bed.

Begin remembering all things I did and said.

And a smile opens on my lips as my eyes begin to close and I am

            taken up rapturously in pure perfect ecstasy.
