Listen to poem:

Greet the Morning Sun

Through my window pierce first spry rays of sun 
tingling energy hovers over me
like a coat waiting for a day of fun
effervescence tickles my skin with glee

Eyes shut tight I let myself be nudged by
a giggly infantry of mini faeries
aided by a mischievous butterfly
together keen to take on the breeze

As my eyes  brush off the teasing sunrays
I linger in every precious moment
fresh morn air percolates in spite my laze
coaxes me to greet the sublime ascent

Cool air kissing my face like an eager puppy
Too excited Wake up Wake up Why so sleepy
