New Sky - Morning


New Sky - Morning;
forty-nine degrees.
Cup of coffee - steaming
in the coolness of the air,
foggy breath, like pieces of soul
leaving, testing the air - too cold,
returning from whence it came.
Morning glow - sun still shrouded
by the horizon, birds just starting to sing;
robins, cardinals, then jays and crows,
mockingbirds, woodpeckers, titmice too.
Treetops touched in gold,
coffee almost gone - need another cup,
don't want to move though;
new sky - morning;
nectar to ones soul.
