its lovely ...
the warmth of ... awakening
beautiful juxtapositioning and there is nothing obvious here ... its something that trickles down - like that warm realisation as birdsong infiltrates awakening ... so nice >>> Gina -
Did not get
I know about the coolness gone from pillow. Someone should invent self-freshening pillows. I would never feel that way in the morning, unless I were ill and confined to bed. Perhaps the writer lives somewhere in the tropics where the birds make a great racket at night. I think probably it is a description of waking up, but no, did not truly get.
