Awakening

morning thoughts

Life should be

neither a dream nor nightmare

but

an awakening

inspired by

a latte and honey toast

Could I add and the words of a friend of the heart. As I don't drink coffee and I'm on a diet.
Wonderful words Emma beautifully arranged this morning.

[Ken e Bujold]

the beauty of this poem Emma rests in the open to interpretation first line, in particular, "should" which allows the reader to choose: advisory or admonishment? after several readings I am still not sure which: so I am off for coffee, nicotine and eclairs :)

Milk and honey. Maybe the greatest motivators in all of history. My land of milk and honey begins with a fifteen-mile long driveway to some woods with a creek... If I could only find the address

[emmajoygreen]

Send out the sniffer dogs - the creek is there somewhere, Vol! Meantime, sending honey toast via pigeon post. Lov e to both.

Some religious traditions hold that this physical life is completely a dream. I wouldn't mind waking up to a latte and honey toast, but truth be told, I'm a Starbuck's House Blend guy.

To each his or her own, sir! Enjoy your soon to come treat. Sipping and nibbling mine as I type. :)

[Annette Pisano-Higley]

Love the comfort, the mellow tone of this poem dear Emma. Yes, life should be golden, like “a latte and honey toast”, offered on fine china by a sweetly consistent muse. It should instill within, nothing less than a seed awaiting lyrical birth…oh if only…

[emmajoygreen]

My dear friend and much, much more, your mind flies the same journey as mine, always has done. Lyrical birth exists to use whenever, no matter perfection - it just needs to come from the heart. Best love and many thank yous, dear
Annette.
