When You Get to Wake Up to This, You Can't Help But Feel Good

This is what I saw this morning when I walked outside, shortly after 7.


It inspired me to write this:

Dawning

Inches away from explosion, the red is
so deep it bleeds
up through the clouds.
The power, of such anticipation, to
set the trees ablaze.
Can't you?  Feel it?
Stirring, growing,
the swell of new, bursting
suddenly.
The birds sit still, wings
motionless.
As if captured by the very way
it thrums.
Sky spreads open, its arms trembling.
Awake, morning!  Breathe!

(End poem)

And with that, I hope each and everyone of you has been enjoying a great new day.

2012

YAAAAAAAY!!!!   My first post of the new year!!!

I've been pretty busy since the end of December, but am back for more blogging fun.  I've already dedicated this year to the flourishing beginning of my writing career.  So I'm optimistic about 2012.

I'd like to sincerely thank all the people who've been reading my thoughts since I began this.  I promise you that more new and exciting tidbits are yet to come.

Enjoy this wonderful new year!!
