Upon the veranda I sit quietly
In the hours just past dawn
I find peace amongst the quiet
It is the best part of the morn

I am enveloped in tranquility
As I gaze out towards the sea
I am at one with my thoughts
Here my spirit feels so free

I find so much inspiration
Which encourages me to write
I take photographs at sunset
As the day turns into night

As the light of day is fading
And I look out across the sea
I allow thoughts of my father
To come sailing home to me

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
- Shawn Mullins

I love you
With a thousand hearts."

But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20

Hi Sue ... love your new picture!  

Bright and early morn is my favorite time of the day also. Most of the world is still sleeping and it's a good time to think, to pray and to write.

I enjoyed this so much.
Hugs to you my friend, Marti

I take no credit for my poems. Although I write them, I feel
more like I transcribe them. It's just a matter of listening.
