Breath of Warm Morning

Breath of warm morning
Filters from the sun lit leaves
To the wooden porch.

 

Shine is all around--
On the leaves and on the lawn,
And on my spirits.

 

 Rooster keeps crowing
And the hens keep on clucking--
All's well with the world.

Dandelion puffs
Have fled into the empty air
Leaving just their stalks.

The birds and the bugs
Singing their own melodies;
Some right in my face.

Sun plays in the woods
Making puddles of bright light
Amid the shadows.

Canopy of light
Shines through the translucent leaves
On the still road.

A blessed breeze blows
Down the road and on my face
Bringing sweet Spring smells.
