Beauty of the morning

Walking outside

the only one awake

or so you think

no one else is moving

still air for only you to breathe

each step you make is heard

but by only you of course

you could scream so loud

run around in circles

and it would only be you who hears

you can go about your business

alone

completely secluded

that is the beauty of the morning

crisp air rubbing itself up and down your leg

prickling your nose until you scrunch it up against your face

you can taste the spring time

stick out your tongue

and stare at it

until you go cross eyed

laugh at yourself a little

experience the mindfulness

you are the morning

the morning is you

we are together

that is the beauty of the morning
