silence of morning
as darkness lingers
mind slow to respond
silence of morning
as darkness lingers
mind slow to respond
sitting in silence
ready to greet a haiku
but no hurry
morning sirens
even in paradise
alerts then birdsong
piano chords
on her typewriter keys
announcing joy
do you hear ions
crooning in the breeze –
your song awaits
as espresso flows
mouth to brain cells
eyes focus within
a new sunrise
not yet visible
yet fully present
apparent cease-fire
unlike before
may it be true
i do believe
mind hand coordination
will re-boot
the old country
at one side of pendulum
one day to swing back
