I'Ve Been Blessed

I cherish mornings
Before the world wakes up,
And news crowds my head
Demanding attention;

Intermingled thoughts of others
Oft fills my cup,
As I expunge those
Unworthy of mind's retention;

The quietness allows thoughts
To freely travel,
Recalling events
That became life changing tests;

At times it seemed my life
Would suddenly unravel,
But through it all I have to say,
I've been blessed.

Mine are moments in front of a glass window over looking a bird bath and bird seed... my computer before me and my mind beginning to write. Then as my dog snuggles in, I know I have been blessed.
