Street Lights

I listen to the streets
they have all the right names
at dawn I stand under the lamps

blueish grey skies part open
the day is welcomed by the warm morning sun 
electric mind illuminate me 
reveal all the answers I need

I continue to walk against the morning clock 
and the street lights hum in tune with me
life is not about wanting it all 
it is about giving it all, 
all in all, the day is young 
and there is a lot to be done.
