Morning Light

Sunbeam warms my face, drags me faintly from my dreams-- the hush of morning covers me in tranquil vow, a new chance to start again. Sun peeps through curtains, gets under my dozy skin- day begins with hope.

Dear Rowena, gentle optimism flowed through your verse and into my soul as I read your beautiful poem. I adore "dozy skin" and the way that every morn represents "a new chance to start again." Indeed, hope rises with the sun. A splendid and inspiring piece, my poet friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
