PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

In the early morning light,

before the sun touches the corners of my room,

I sit and contemplate the dawning day,

inhaling it's sweet perfume.

This most beautiful time of day

is when I find the most respite,

When all is still, peaceful and quiet,

and worries are far from sight.



Now is the time for my most private communication,

my innermost thoughts, I am free

to go where I want, think what I will,

and be anything that I want to be.

A time to attend to my spirit's needs,

something I keep on a back shelf.

Now is for me... Just me...

Just to be myself.



This contemplation always begins bittersweetly

and with some sadness,

exhausted as my spirit is

from dealing with the daily madness.

The night's rest is never enough

to replenish my weary soul;

Only in the early morning light do I see eternity,

my life's goal.



Just a brief glimpse

of what serenity and true peace can be.

but that glimpse is enough

to energize me, motivate me, set me free.

Rejuvenated, I am strong,

ready and able to face another day.

inspired by the morning,

and God's glory, and His blessings, I pray.



Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, Lord,

for the love You've given me.

For this morning. For this life.

Please... stay with me eternally.
