Bundled up in my coozie
My hands wrapped around my warm cup of coffee
I sit on the porch swing observing dawn.
Dew mingled all over the greyed grass.
There was finally a bite to the morning air
But I didn't care.
I took a deep breath in
Exhaled it out
With a smirk lingering on the side of my smile
I took a sip of my coffee.
Sitting in silence,
Until the birds begin to wake and start to sing
The sky is beautiful
Crisp clean lines of clouds mingled among the darkness until the reds, orange, and yellows take to the sky.
I took a deep breath.
I exhaled my worries and fears
Today was a new day
Today I had woken up
I was thankful for that
Today I'm going to live.
