Early in the Morning
The silence just before dawn
pause and enjoy the moment
sharpness of an early morning
quietly piercing the inner soul
every day dawn is different
listen carefully, not a sound
beautiful wonderful feeling
let it wrap around the body
slight mist on the steep hills
fog rising from the still river
no distractions joy and peace
tranquility is a real blessing
fragrance from the garden
some a little smelly, mildew
sweet smell of honeysuckle
as the sun starts to warm up
the environment preserved
a few moments of quietness
deep within the now quiescent
intimacy of my still warm body
spiritual moment,
body filled with confidence.
