How I Feel 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈
One October Morning, 2007
I have woken to the happy sound
of the small birds with their loud voices
chirrupping & tweeting in the trees.

The sun has not yet peeped his face
over the jagged Rock that guards our valley
and the mist rises like a silk curtain
from the wet ground after the Rain.

The white PippyCat, light sleeper that she is,
wakes when she hears me fill the kettle
with precious water
and stridently demands her breakfast snack.

First coffee ready now, I find my chair is full
and gently move MoCat, fat and furry,
onto another chair
whose coldness he rejects.

Press a button on this dangfangled machine
and wait as the wonderous thing
sends a message to the world
via a plastic dish on the roof.

Good morning, World.
A new day is dawning
and I cherish that I am here
to bear witness.
