where the heart finds me

Music of Sunrise

There’s not a waking second more
A mystery dream still in waking hours
Anyway
There’s warmth under the covers
Reticent to remain outside looking in
don’t want to read my own autobiography

Bent flower in a vase, will it recover?
Even plants have sweat stains
Nothing is ever easy
No, not that one!
that hat is too sad to wear
those garments too bland
those shoes too sole-thin

Rolling arpeggio of piano crescendos
No holding back the rhythm nods
Learning to appreciate the precision
hearing the note by note progression
knowing how it will all end
still
it is mesmerizing, captivating, alluring
the music of sunrise

I was lost in the under the covers part!!  I hate getting out of bed in the a.m., even if it is for the beauty of sunrise...

Your poem is as beautiful as a sunrise, PB4S.
I love sunrises but am too lazy to get up to see them in the morning.
Great job!

Noah: Thank you so much, I am glad you enjoyed this.

Sea: Thank you! Mornings are splendid aren't they?

Bill: Yes, it can be very mesmerizing to watch a new day come to life, thank you!

amusemi: Sometimes I find it hard to get out from under those covers too, far too comfortable there that time of day. Thank you!

Madame Chipmunk: You should try it once, you will never be the same. Sunsets are wonderful, but can't begin to compare to sunrise! Thanks!
