Morning is such a welcome time. It doesn't demand <br />much from the pocket- Some coffee, a cigarette, <br />and the day starts, full of optimism & clarity of hope <br />While the Muse holds her head, and the crazy Elementals <br />hold down their wrath <br />lightly under the earth's surface. <br /> Some vague attention <br />of wind stirs the golden oats <br />and Ita Siamese drags her breakfast rabbit over <br />the roof three <br />times into the house and escorted out <br /> the door. While Aram Saroyan & W.S. Merwin <br />debate the paucity of their fathers' feelings <br />in New York Times reviews, <br />the deer <br />coming down the pathway still <br /> are my startled guests as this morning proceeds normally<br /><br />Joanne Kyger<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/morning-is-such-a-welcome-time-it-doesn-t-demand/
