I’ve been waking up early
Although I’m sleeping well
I rise when the morning sun
Brightens my room

And it’s not as if
I have any wish to sleep in
For I want to start my day
And follow my routines

Morning is my time
To absorb the world
With pages and technology
Allowing me comfort

It is my time to think
And to write
And to plan
And to breathe

I’m grateful
For each morning
As I know I’ve reached
Another day

And I look anxiously forward
To what’s in store for me
On the remarkable journey
I am on

Today I feel at peace
Though there is turmoil within
But it’s my morning
And I’m ready to live again
