Morning In Glorious Emergence
I manage my planned early rise in hopes dawn will kindly provide
me time before others converge in the joy bounce of family noise.
With silent glee for this vacation cabin, well worth our money splurge,
I tiptoe out to the porch.
Fresh, early morning beauty twinkle-dance performs
upon the lake’s sleepy surface and the sight sigh-settles bliss
among my accrued anxiety bits.
Nature’s most enchanting chords sound-lift my awe with full force
as truth resurges within my soul.
Morning in glorious emergence nurses me with a wordless,
restoring sermon felt purge.
I watch life at the nearby pond where birds group-peek for worms
while three unconcerned swans mellow glide behind the fronds.
Glad am I for nature’s catharsis to all in me the city daily twists.
I am so porch and nature settled, I nearly miss the eager kettle hiss
warning that family is in my midst and hungry for their morning grits.
