A Poetry Journey
A rainy morning
Clouds hanging heavy and low
Day covered in grey
The smell of coffee
Permeates the small kitchen
Brewing strong and hot
New day approaching
Dawn’s light on the horizon
Killing off the night
New year approaches
As Christmas takes an exit
Time for a restart
A light rain falling
Dropping from a cold grey sky
Splashing in the creek
Day after Christmas
Toys and presents scattered
Around the pine tree
Christmas Eve today
Santa waits at the North Pole
Anxious and ready
A bright cold morning
Hot and strong cup of coffee
Helps to start the day
Bird singing outside
A happy joyful tune
Welcoming the day
Clouds parting quickly
Day filled with lots of sunshine
Greets me this morning
Tiny small raindrops
Covering the deck today
Blanketing the ground
A morning sunrise
Warm rays welcome a new day
Fill us all with hope
Sun in a clear sky
Warming rays of healing light
Shining bright today
A bright Christmas tree
Alive with color and light
Covered in tinsel
Nighttime’s black darkness
Devours the world outside
Day lies in slumber
A blinking cursor
Mocking me with harsh laughter
Creatively dry
+
Bare and naked trees
Stripped free of summer’s green leaves
Branches like brown bones
Damp and dreary day
Thick dark grey clouds hanging low
Spilling out cold rain
Strong cup of coffee
Helps to warm and caffeinate
The body and soul
Distant lonely star
Hanging in the new dawn sky
Shining fierce and bright
Clouds breaking open
Spilling out the golden sun
Bright rays full of warmth
