NO GUARANTEE
.
.
When we go to sleep we do not have a guarantee
That we will awaken to the same world
Anything could happen
A natural disaster or a man made calamity
Some unknown illness, or a strange mutation of a known disease
The list is endless of all the many possible horrors that could have transpired
While we slept peacefully, unaware, of the dreadful new circumstances.
So, when I awake to the normal world .....sun rising as it should
Birds singing, humanity humming along with their myriad purposes
I rejoice at this moment, when I see it's all still here
Everything doing what it does and should do
And I have my limbs and faculties, my home still standing
My heart beating and filling with the realization that this new day is off
To a wonderful start, a miraculous morning
When everything is right where I left it, ready for me to begin my new day
However I choose.
I hold this moment in my heart
Gladness and relief relaxing me as I head towards my coffee.
