Wake Up It's A Beautiful Morning
Sun rays filter through the trees
new leaves glow chartreuse
Scent of lilac floats by
mixing with the deep, rich smell of coffee
in my press
A robin hops along the deck railing
mouth full of lichen for her nest
while her mate sings his heart out
welcoming a beautiful new day
Happy Mother's Day to all!
May you find beauty and joy in the small things
