First the extremities

       Toes

Fingers

  Slowly intruding on the sound

              Of a male Cardinal searching for a mate.

Awareness moves

   I hear the cars driving

    To work.   It was so nice to sleep with the windows open

Cars filled with those who have to be someplace

Stretching – get the blood flowing

          Muscles wake up more slowly than the ears

I smell the coffee waiting in the Kitchen

           Mr. Coffee has done his duty once again.

Dry – thirsty,  there is still ice in the glass

                                              Lovely cold taste,

Mr. Cardinal still calling -  He is very eager,

OK, time to open my eyes – Light

         Soft, muted the sun is up but it is a foggy day

Pressure – I guess I need to move. 

Good Morning World, I am glad you are still here.
