Morning Ramble

It's Early When He Visits Me

It is quiet in the house-
No cat, no mouse
To disturb the sounds
Of coffee brewing,
(And my cough, brewing)

Of 'puter humming
And fan running.
September First?
It's not the worst thing
That might happen
On a summer morning.

The sun is golden
Looking like molten light
As it falls, hazy
On my lazy, needs-to-be-weeded garden.

I give thanks for the quiet morning
That came, without warning, as a messenger
(Though things are a mess in here,
This jumbled head)
To fall on my bed, and remind me quiet
Not to deny it, this day
Its due homage
As its child.
