Pollyanna Moment

I wake at the ascension of golden dawn to meditate on the morning's mystique To the sandy shoreline, I'm always drawn as the sun climbs over the mountain peak How calm the lake's water without a ripple Like a sheet of glass; is my mirrored reflection I seek its tranquil comfort as a babe, a nipple To me, this is a moment of sheer perfection It's hope of a budded flower before it blooms In solitude, I peer from rose-colored glasses I have no fear about what in darkness looms but too soon, my Pollyanna moment passes

Alas, those tranquil comforts are fleeting, but hopefully, so are the harsh moments. Nice portrayal of a mountaintop experience, Jenna ~ John

I too seek that sheer moment of perfection, unfortunately we have to wake up from the beautiful dreams and face reality. I enjoyed your Pollyanna moment, Jenna. Have a great day. Hugs, John

It really is my favorite time of day; the hush before the rush of human traffic. Thanks for coming by, John.

Extend that moment!! I saw a deal on Pollyanna glasses at Target just the other day: 50% off if you smile the entire time you are backed up in line waiting for the cashier. BB (Big Brother) is watching. LOL. Seriously, here's to happiness! Happy Friday, Jenna. Joy and Light, Gershon
