With morning
comes the lightness
the diffuse
creeping dawn
gently announcing a new day
Happy knees will still bend
arms still raise
I bound from the bed
and dance into its embrace
for a moment
and then I surrender
back to gravity
falling into the warmth
that cocooned me
in the night
Bed
Beth,
ReplyDeleteYour blog is the first thing I look for when I turn on my computer in the morning. What joy when I find you have a new post! Thank you so much for adding to my day! Marilyn
Marilyn, Wow - what a blessing to read your message - I continue to marvel at the wonder of our age that separated by so much physical distance, we can be so connected. What a lucky woman am I to have such friends! Peace, Beth
DeleteIf you haven't already, you MUST consider publishing a book of your poetry! Seriously.. Marilyn
