Natural Morning

I wonder what they are thinking
A beautiful spring morning
The first sun to shine forever and a day

Awoken from their glorious slumber
To find us
Eagerly waiting for some display

'Come on lads
Its showtime
Another round to do'

But somehow its not like that
Today, they wake gracefully
As if knowing this is not a curtain cue

With quiet grace
They all awaken
Somehow aware they can be 

And in quiet grace
They somehow become themselves
Infront of you and me

The monkeys eat their breakfast
Glance at us
And almost invite us to their dish

The golden eagle
Needs not do nothing
Its beauty is simply too beautiful to miss

The owl seems happy for company
Awake from slumber
It turns it head with inquisitive eyes

It plays with us
For a little while
He is the  therapist, the one so wise

To find them so free
So quiet in this early morning
When crowds have yet to view

Have found them 
In their natural morning
Just for me and you

I like what you are seeing Jo, maybe for some strange reason we are here for each other, and we do view, but what do they see? Nice poem, James
