Life

A warm blanket for the morning.
A freshly squeezed glass of orange juice.
A sun ray peeking through soft dew.
A grandfather clock chiming in the corner.
A rush past swaying beds of grass.
A leap onto smooth cement.
A rain cloud in the horizon.
A whisper of fog from the south.
A passenger train behind schedule.
A quick look at a wristwatch.
A card yet to be punched.
A sudden pour on open fields.
A puddle mistaken for a ravine.
A hurricane for your troubles.
A wind to be ever picked up.
A wind which is actually a breeze.
A blow of a dandelion.
A seed connecting with earth.
A drink for the roots.
A sapling sprung high.
A tree for your troubles.
