CELESTIAL DATE

JOURNAL#17

the morning tip toes softly into my gentle

sleeper's pane

waking most unfashionably early

this mystified mind to the dawning new

day's reign

sweet like soft Sonata awareness

draws back a parade of curtain's cloth

welcoming the warmest possible visitor

with such fresh accepting glee

and me with my jumble of dreams and sleep

strewn thoughts

still somewhat catatonic from my lengthy

rest

I graciously welcome my too early morning

guest

the so respectable Mr. Sun

and invite him to have his morning's break

with me

and at the end of our mutual session

of such needed communion

I say good day

thanks to you kind sir

won't you join me in further paired solitude

again this time tomorrow

as it was never my initial intention

to seem so groggy nor rude................

(Sept. 5, 1997)
