To Soothe a Restless Heart

A troubled morning found me woke And to a restless heart it spoke But not in words, yet other ways This notion to me it conveys The greeting of the Cypress trees That whisper on the dawning breeze They say, get up, the day is new Discover what’s ahead for you The Cardinals are in splendid tune As I imbibe a morning moon The Blue Jay beckons me to dance Perhaps a day filled with romance And with the sun, a golden kiss Such happiness I can’t dismiss A butterfly to tag-along Enhances this good morning song Delighted by a Daffodil No more, a melancholy chill With Honeysuckle everywhere It could not bide, it would not dare
