Special Sunrise
I woke up this morning in my own bed
The same place I woke up before
But something was special about today
I have never noticed
As I opened up the door
The birds were singing in the trees
The air was nice and sweet
With the smell of flowers in the air
The traffic even had a special beat

Was such a welcome sound
I answered back , went out the door
To enjoy the sun while lying down
To my surprise It felt so good
It took me breath away
I stayed and enjoyed the wonder
of a special no-work day

heralds the coming dawn
shadows recede westward
another twilight gone
The City stands behind me
poised
Sweetly slanting tones bend through, each resplendent drop of dew,
peering through them life does too, assume a sweeter slant.
