Good Morning


Good morning restless choir songs,
Invading passages their scores,
Fire and ice fray head strong,
The traveler's place unsure,
Bold actors chant self serving,
Impromptu at the door.


Good morning lights encroaching,
icy fingers stab the glass.
Sleek swords of light in motion,
cutting shadows on the sash.
The looking glass creeps open,
enticing golden bowls to act.    


Good morning clocks keep seeking
the conscious thoughts to flow.
Dream sailors are retreating
Eldorado's shores of gold.
A mirage of goals conceding
the slumbering lids unfold.
  
Good Morning!

Hah! Awakening with this poems persuasion is like opening your eyes to more wonders than you can comprehend at first drowsy glance. By the time you get to the last verse all becomes clear. Good writing.

The first stanza is exactly how a minstrel
might see his world. Excellent writing, Eric. I truly enjoyed this. Thank you!

Every day is full of glorious wonders of some sort. Thanks for the read and the recognition of the last verse to tie it all in.
