Morning Mystery...

The early morning
has always been my time
as calm rises from the earth,
like the morning fog
spreading opaque tendrils
of soft water vapor
you breathe into your lungs
and out through your soul
leaving your mind refreshed
and your spirit whole
as your body drinks in
the last few drops of ambrosia
left by the gods on high...
Don't ask me why, for i could not say
why mornings have alway saved me,
defined me, made me feel this way
The wonder of another morn
as if each day i am born again
wihout having to have the rude slap
that started all our lives...
