A Morning's Greeting

[Moonshine]

The world is waking
And the sky a paling blue,
With no clouds in sight.
Spikes of reds, pinks, oranges and yellows
Will soon streak across the sky
As the day begins to warm.
All that is green; grass, leaves,
Fields that are the flowing seas surrounding my home,
Are kissed by the morning's dew.
In the distance,
A train passes quickly by.
Nearby, cars' engines are coming to life.
Purring with the simple turn of the key.
Downstairs, lights are turned on
As the kettle boils.
The tom cat meows to be let out,
As the baby purr machine races up along the stairs
To come and greet me with my 'hello.'
As I ready myself to welcome the world with mine.

howdy, moonshine. I could do with a bit of dew and green in the new day dawning right now! Warm poem, warm poem.

Simple graceful flow of words descriptive and somehow reassuring

[Moonshine]

: ) Thank you both, Poeticpiers and Monkey boy. I wrote it a long time ago. Since joining AC, I've been looking at older work. It's amazing what you can write, and manage to forget about it, buried under the latest flow of words.

Rereading half forgotten poems you read them with a stranger's eye

Moonshine, thank you for sharing the start of the day through your eyes.

The ending effectually wrapped up all of the experiences which so poetically preceded it.
