The sounds of morning is
just what we need. I like the cracking of tires
on concrete. I like the mixed voices
echoing through my mind. And I like the ruffling of
fixing a breakfast snack. The many conversations
overheard every morning Allows an insight into
people’s lives. It seems that I know Mary
and her new friend which she causes to smile; It seems that I know Charles
who has a store downstairs; It is like as though I know
the man attending the parking garage Who says “good morning”
to me every morning, And although all our
strangers, it is like I know each face which promptly Joins me in the coffee shop
every morning. Yes, the sounds of life of
the morning is just what I need every morning. I am blessed by the raising
of a new day; I am sure we need a newness
that comes with every morning; It is as if I need to grow
as the day grows; It’s like I need to
stretch myself as the sun stretches the shadows; And it’s like I long to
learn something new in every new morning. This is morning, and I like
it. It is not like any other
part of the day. Morning is ‘morning’. Unlike the noon time,
morning fashions our day. Unlike the evening that
closes, morning opens our eyes, our minds, and our hearts. And unlike darkness of
night, morning brings the rising of the sun for a new day. I thank You Lord for the
newness of each morning. Thank You Lord for the
people, the activity, the sounds, And the blessings of every
morning. Morning is just what we
need. Thank You Lord God for
morning.
