MorningsBallet

With coffee on board 
and dressed in jammies 
I settle down to 
watch the kaleidoscope morning 
sky spin and twirl 
with the same unabashed 
excitement as schoolgirl 
ballet performers unashamedly free
if I listen closely 
enough I can hear 
giggles of glee as
the clouds open to 
sunlight like those same 
children’s smiles upon hearing 
the applause from parents 
and siblings and friends 
Oh that coffee’s hot
What a marvelous morning
