The sun is rising over the fields

chasing the mist away

dewdrops sparkle

on cobwebs in the grass

the world awakes

gentle sound of grazing deer

an elk stride across the meadow

towards my garden

he stops

looks at me

and change direction

a braver animal hops right into my garden

a hare looking for nibbles

with a smile on my lips

I watch my parsley vanish

how peaceful my garden is in the morning

how peaceful the world seems

like there were no sorrows

no grief

I breathe in all the scents of sunrise

it gives me hope

it gives me strength

I am ready to face the day.
