Winter Day Dawning


                              WINTER DAY DAWNING

            The morning star paled slowly in the early light of day,
            The milky way has disappeared somewhere along the way.
            Trees and shrubs are coming from behind the night time gloom.
            Soon, I'll see all the view from the window of my room.
            The light inside is better now; I can see a curtained square.
            The ceiling is almost visible and looks to be quite bare.
            I cannot see the cobwebs, but I know they'll still be there.
            Its time to make a move to start the workings of the day,
            I'll leave my warmth and comfort, the quiet in my room
            To go out into the fields to see what's happening there.

Its an effort to start on a cold winter's morning.

    It's spring in New Mexico but yet I felt a chill while reading this one. Good job brother and well done. Happy trails.

      Winter is just around the corner for us, but this year I have one big variant from last year. When its cold, frosty and miserable outside I shall put another log on the fire and stay indoors.
      Thank you for our encourageing comment.

      Thanks Jackie, I like the mornings of summer, nice and warm, but don't like the extreme heat we get here. Winter mornings are Ok once I get started.

    Oh, how I know that feeling, on a winter morning, not wanting to get out of bed just yet. I love the line /I cannot see the cobwebs but I know they'll still be there/. Once you're out and doing, it's better, though, isn't it?

      The day is so much better when you are out and moving.Yes that is true, and on a winter morning the air is usually so clear and crisp. It's exhilarating, even when its freezing. Thank you for your comments. We share similar outlooks in winter, jsu another few minutes inthe warm bed.
  • A happy Good Morning to you, loved this...

      Thank you, it is a good morning. Winter is just around the corner and the heat of high summer has gone. My favourite time of year is right now, autumn. I'm pleased you liked my writing. Cheers , Bob
