Morning comes early now


Morning comes early now

Without tip toes or slow swings of the brush 

that clears the cobwebs ensnaring the brain

Morning now comes with a sudden rush

Of a bright day streaming in

Startling our spirit neighbors just about to settle for a feast.

The caution to open an eye 

And spy the dove stretching in the dew

Is lost in the shock of time and schedules set by machines and monsters

Morning comes early now without warning

Before the cockerel has cleared his throat to announce the day

Before the love has drained her languidity. 

The start is not waiting for the end to begin

The flywheel is now rolling the spinner.

Morning comes too early now.
