morning by morning

 

    it was six am when I awoke this morning

 

morning light streamed through the tree branches outside the window

sausage and eggs sizzled, bread toasted and the coffee pot percolated

there was a clatter of cupboard and fridge doors as a lunch was packed for the work-goer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the blinds were swept opened, and sunlight sparkled through the glass

 

"morning by morning new mercies I see / great is thy faithfulness, Lord unto me"

 

a new day has begun
