New Day
First break of light, senses keen
for any trace of change,
I greet the day, eager
to meet any challenge, knowing
what I face will not daunt me.
Each day is a new beginning.
No hurdle is too great,
this morning or any morning.
This is my response to #Quadrille #158: Morning Has Broken, the prompt from Linda Lee Lyberg at dVerse ~ Poets Pub, which is to use a form of the word morning in a 44-word poem (excluding title), with no required meter or rhyme.

Once I have a cup of coffee in me, maybe. Good verbalization of a thought tape running just under the surface.

Some days definitely are better than others, and some days I worry more than others, but I certainly try to start my days this way.

Eager is not my first thought in the morning. So envy from this corner too. (K)

I may not have a perfect record, but I’m ahead of a typical batter’s stats. I’m not so sure about my RBIs.

Nice guidelines for the lazy to get with the program.
A cup of coffee and the world news on TV and one stick of a granola bar are my eye openers. If I’m not up by eight, I’d like it in bed brought to me. You can tell I’m retired.

Then there’s the problem of finding someone to bring it to you in bed. 😉
