Notes About The Poem

Morning Start

Morning Start

From out of the east, the sun rises to greet
Me at a table in a café where I sit
With my laptop open, surfing the internet
While snacking on a sweet cinnamon roll treat,
With a cup of freshly brewed coffee to sip.
And for a brief moment, my time stands still,
And I feel as one with the universe
While reading my emails and wiping my lips.

Then, reality intervenes, and my focus shifts
(After finishing the pastry and java uplift)
To look out the filmy window and deep sigh
That I have to proceed to my workplace high-rise
Filled with people and office equipment
Doing routine tasks associated with business.
