Than This Morning

Than this morning

Cantilever wishing wells
Long about the winding path
Clover is the foot print maker
Sunlight brings a hearty laugh

Skies will whisper if you listen
Music plays upon the field
Breezes blow the horns of springtime
Blooms about the mountain yield

Dragonflies will touch your senses
Wings align the ancient trees
Branches filled of moss that’s clinging
Birds and now the buzzing bees

Come let’s walk in rows of promise
Take me by the waiting hand
This may be a dream we’re having
Wandering this wonderland

Still if we would stand awakened
Leaving sheets and shoes behind
There’s no telling what will greet us
When we let our thoughts unwind

For you see there is an answer
As we stroll so aimlessly
There is nothing more enchanting
Than this morning, you and me

Good morning Soupers

'clover is a foot print maker' how lucky is that? Bonjour Chris, everything in your poem, plus our high-spirited dogs, reminds me that it is in the great outdoors that you will best celebrate the day. By the way, thank you for this enchanting poem; I'm now ready to go greet the laughing sunlight:) Amitiés
