i kiss the morning

what a beautiful morning this is!

photography by julia trotti

wilted blossoms

    burst into a rainbow of color

words once concealed

         come out of hiding

fluffy dandelion wishes

             are sprinkled with stardust

                    till they are gloriously tangible

wrinkled thoughts

                          are ironed to perfection

         filled with hope

i kiss the morning awake

'i kiss the morning awake'..
I swear i heard the morning sigh when i read that line. There's something about mornings...they are full of energy, but they're also full of tenderness. and for a poet, they are even more special. your words drift just like that gentle murmur of breeze, brushing away those last remnants of fear. so very uplifting. your poetry brings such joy, Lydi!

Just as your reviews bring me joy, Sanober. Thank you once again. Lydi**

An amazing bursting forth of radiant color and a myriad of lovely textures mark Spring.
Mid-April morning is even more alluring.
Gorgeous bit of work, Lydi!
