i greet the day
i greet the day
ominous and pure
the red velvet of a pregnant sky
touches my skin
the biting crisp snap penetrates my cheek
the luminescence of green hues, every one imaginable
and then some
like a jigsaw puzzle
comes together in leaf and tree
my eyes bright with reflection
good morning juniper, rosemary, geranium
good morning sage, lavender, bamboo and morning glory
good morning little white flowers
i greet this day sensing the magic
of every molecule
interacting, dancing
as clear as my own breath
and i am humbled
