Waking up early,
warmth and softness
surround me as only
can be felt
after a good night’s sleep
in my own bed at home.
The sun is not up,
yet I feel its
warm joy throughout
my slowly waking body.
I get up slowly,
trying not to lose
the fuzzy warmth
and haze of
dreams just left.
It’s going to be a good day.
I feel a smile spreading
through me
as I watch coffee
dripping into my favorite
orange cup.
