SOFT DAWN
SOFT DAWN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daylight brought calmness to my front door. It invited itself in, made itself at home, and stayed a while.
gentle morning light
lucid glow of a new day
peace wraps the soft dawn

Morning Praise
When I wake up in the morning
The first thing that I'll do
Is Praise God for one more day
And look at life like it's Brand New
I forget about the worries
That filled my yesterdays
And not over think tomorrow
As I let God lead my way
Chorus
As I travel through each day
I wear a smile for

In the morning, when I open my eyes at dawn
In the morning, when I open my eyes at dawn,
She is the sun that lights up my world with her silken rays.
In her face resting on the pillow of dreams, I find the first light,
And before I wrap myself in the mantle of night, she is my last glance.
She is the light of my life,

Add Humor To Your Day
Instead of acting like you’re in mourning
With a smiling face, just say good morning
Instead of walking around with a frown
Just be happy without being a clown
Kids don’t need for your tales to be gory
Why not share with them, a funny story
No need to go on about your ex-wife
Say something humorous about your life
To break

I Am Brown
Don't talk to me
until I've had my coffee
Brown beans with a round and rich taste
provide an invigorating effect
I drink my morning coffee
with a clear conscience
A gentle start to the day
Coffee beans come in all scents and colors

Morning Encounter
I know you have
been waiting to show me
the glittering glaze of sunlight
caught in your stillness,
the reflected trees on the far bank
mirrored perfectly and something
surfacing from out of the depths
sending ripples across the morning
to gently lap against
my waking mind.
And I don't even know
your name.

MORNING LIGHT
Man must live with enough, not
with the exorbitant...
We need to be happy
with the happiness of others
around us... thus,
we will live in peace...
But first of all, we need
to have the courage to live in peace!
Distributing is not impoverishing ourselves
materially to help
those who are wronged... doing

The Early Morning
The Early Morning
…… is an inspired artist
with a palette of celestial colours;
its paintbrush, brilliant sunlight.
I sit in the hub of the garden
absorbed as the sun clambers skywards,
chased by several scribbled-inked birds.
Sunrise now reaches out to anoint my house,
daubing vibrant light that glistens like gemstones
on windows, downpipes and lazed, garden furniture.
Even the washing line

My Bicycle of Imagination
My Bicycle of Imagination
The day and I are hand in hand,
brimming with a zippety-whippity-do.
I sit atop my saddle, my bicycle, my hill;
the morning mist is ragged like candy floss
on barbed wire, waggled fences.
Below a liquorice-tarmacked road
elbows through a mosaicked landscape;
churned fields sitting either side,
serrated into channels of earth;
suited and rooted in browned

The Unnamed Gods of Morning
I do not pray.
But every morning,
I speak to the god of routine.
He lives in the curve of the cup handle,
the silence before the first email,
the steam
that curls like a secret
from my mug.
My desk is a shrine—
the plant I won’t name,
the notes I won’t read,
the longing I won’t say.
If I believed in God,
I would beg him

GOOD MORNING SOUL
GOOD MORNING SOUL next
Good morning soul,
Today, I’m going to write
You a poem my mind
Suggested to me last night.
Relax, my soul,
This poem will be
One of joyous tears
Of the two sons, I miss;
Sons that gave me such bliss:-
This poem flows itself with keloid
Memories of those loving times,
Canvassing how God could
Could have so pleasingly
Wanted them

a moment before the charge

Beauty Crowned
burgundy and cream
and orange blossoms she wore
crowned in hues and lore
fresh naturally
like deep green, minty morning
sweet scent trails forming
queen of nature crowned
in myriad blooms daily
so lovely lately
