Rise and shine
whispers the sun through a crack in my curtains
I blink my eyes open
and smile thinking good morning mother nature
she hears me and the birds start to sing the song of nature
the birds sing
how gorgeous their voices are...
opening a window, the sounds rush in
the creek softly babbles half a mile away
the birds sing in pure unending joy
the sun gives me a warm hug and I embrace it right back
smiling, eternally grateful to live here
my dream has come true
and not a day goes by where I am not saying thank you
I proceed downstairs and make breakfast
and brew a pot of coffee
I finish my breakfast just as the coffee is completely made
just like I planned
I pour myself a cup of coffee and take it outside on my back porch
where I sip and soak
I look out past the deck and watch as the sun greets me just over the mountains
time seems to stand still as I enjoy the moment
As my day continues on I watch as the sun follows me being my friend
I can depend on it to always be there
giving me something warm to run to
I rush home hitting rush hour
I run inside and put myself into more comfortable clothes
My seat outside pulls me closer to it
the soft glow of a setting sun
with the dull oranges
and the golden yellows
with the light brushed pinks and reds
welcoming me home
as it sets the pinks become purple
and the purples fade into dark blues
night has come
the sun has gone to sleep
and the moon has yawned it’s way to a waking shine
I shiver and walk inside to find my outdoor blanket and make a cup of warm tea
the only music I need is that of the song of nature
The soft lullabies of the nearby birds
The even softer babbling of a creek nearby
I find it hard to stay awake
knowing it will only get colder and the night grows older,
I walk inside and open my window
I still hear the lullaby of nature as I drift into sleep
the last thing I recall is that of the song of nature
