Reaching out for the stars
That twinkle in the night.
Awakening to the morning sun
Hiding from its glorious light.

The sun rays bounce off your face
As you slide from beneath the sheets.
You reflect on last nights dreams
While you slip slippers onto your feet.

Walking over to the window
Spreading the curtains ever so wide.
Taking a look out at a beautiful morning
Observing sunflowers stretching toward the sky.

The bumbling bumble bee zips for bud to bud
As the majestic monarch floats from flower to flower
Both pollenating a breathtaking landscape
While you sit and watch for hours.

Finally you're aroused out of your daze
By a refreshing spring breeze.
It stimulates you to get out
And pick wildflowers on your hands and knees.

This is a fabulous poem about simplicity in pleasures we all take for granted.  Thank you for sharing.

  I like all aspects of nature and I often include some part in my writings.  I so glad you like this one.  Come back to read more.

This is wonderful!!!  This is the kind of morning I am having up here in Alaska..one of the few left before the big freeze sets in!!
       Thank you for putting it into words,
    as I am going to read it on those days
    when I can't see out my window because
    of the ice!!!


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!

Thanks Sunny1 for your kind words.
I'm so happy that I was able to paint
one last picture for you.  But I'm sure that those icy landscapes are just as beautiful with that blanket of white glistening in that Alaskan sun.
