I love the morning
When the dark turns to blue
As if the earth has yawned.
When the silence becomes noise
When that noise
Is musically in tune.
Woken up and stretched
Time to part my way
From a bed of crinkled sheets.
To be amongst that dawn chorus
Joining in out of tune
With my squeaky shoes
Clouds and the sun
Play peek-a-boo
In between bursts of colour.
Still air to westerly breeze
My whole being
Embracing the sunrise.
Thanks for reading, now let's have a chat

“As if the earth has yawned” – terrific line. I love it all, it *almost* makes me feel like the sort of person who gets up for the sunrise (but not quite)!

Arghh, I nearly made you reconsider the merits of being a morning person but not quite. I will have to try harder next time 😉 Yes, I am not a night owl, I leave that to Les.

I do get up quite early, I just can’t seem to get myself going!

Lovely. I have admiration for people who can wake up in a frame of mind to appreciate things. Takes me a few hours.

There is no doubt I am a morning person and I love a good sunrise. The image is from a previous summer on the beach.

Do you mean the header photo on my blog page? If so, yes, it’s a kingfisher. I’m just wondering why you’re commenting on that and not the post you liked. Curious 😆

Sorry – the Kingfisher was such an eye-catching photo! Maybe I got distracted? 🙂
