Listen to poem:
So, I rose Early morn' today And drew open the bedroom curtain How glorious, the little bit I saw of dawn! How wondrous to see the face of the sun Smiling In a split-second, my joyous spirit Pirouetted and flung up to heaven Just a tease...a glimpse Of a promising day Date written and posted: 12/16/2018

Oh, indeed! Those "little" moments that truly are the fuel that moves us on ... tiny blessings that create the thread of life, woven like strands of light for us to grasp and guide us, (a divine intent behind it, I think) ... excellent write, my friend, and it's going into my favs treasure chest! Blessings and happy holidays to you and yours, My Poet Brother! :-)
