I decided to write a poem today
I decided to write a poem today about the morning sun
streaming through my window
cool with a promise of warmth
waking me up so gently
I decided to write a poem today about rain
shadowing thirsty trees
waiting for just the right moment
to come say hello
I decided to write a poem today about the clouds
silver-grey and brilliant
shining with the sun behind them
just out of sight
I decided to write a poem today about sunsets
and skies filled with color
folded into clouds
over a calm blue bay settling in for a quiet evening
I decided to write a poem today
because I dream of light
more amazing than any I have seen
and wanted to share it with you
