Day Is Yours ...

Blog 340:

“Rise!  Rise up,” great Sun from the east invites
It splashes its rays and says, “Day begins … it’s yours to seize!”
 
Still … I lie in bed and pull covers to my face
Reminiscing on the quiet moments of early morn

“What’s there to seize this day?” I whisper
But just for the sake of giving it a thought
I run down my possibilities and ponder which path to take

“Maybe that craft project I’ve pushed aside moons ago?
How about sorting books I considered last summer?
That bio-pic write up of sort seems worthwhile …
Or tinker on ‘things’ aspiring tutors could use?”

Still … I lie in bed half awake and now somewhat conscious
Supposing, imagining, and reflecting on something else to claim

“Have a laidback day and curl up to a book?
Perhaps indulge in a smoothie and splurge on a bath soak?
How about a funny movie that surely could bring laughter?
Weed the flower garden maybe or do nothing at all?”
“Rise,” the sun from the east invites once more
“Day begins afresh and it’s yours to conquer!”

“Is this day really all for my taking?” I lazily ask great Sun
But a distinct answer or a slight hint, it did not share
Instead it left me alone to willingly choose my path
As it did the day before and days after each waking time
