Morning Gift

early morning on the dock

promise of a beautiful day

breakfast shared with the bluegill

into the canoe, still in pjs

eagle soaring overhead

oriole and kingbird flitting by the shore

mountain laurel in full bloom

dragon flies darting by

downy cattail dispersing its seed

paddling hard against the wind

face warmed by the Son

ready to start a new day
