Morning Poems

[Tinker]

I seem to write in the mornings a lot. I also seem to seem to write about my morning a lot.

Here was some thing I saw right outside my bedroom window this morning while sitting in bed setting up my journal/To Do / daily planner  

Morning Jay

A Jay lands lightly
on a bobbing redwood bough,
rests a bit then bounds away into
the morning sky. 

Its mohawk crown
and royal hued wings 
project his persistence
and fearlessness. 

My charge for the day.

Beginning

Morning warming sun competes
with an early chill 
while the smooth scent 
of my first cup of coffee
blends into the environment.
Perfect beginning to a joyful day.

When I see the Canada geese take flight overhead, I say to myself, "Every goose matters!" Animals are best, just like this jay, your spirit animal for the day. Nice work, nice message.

PS, I'm excited to see you still using a day planner, I had them, too, back in the day. Nowadays, I use the electronic version: my phone.

Tony,  i also use my phone, it is efficient and always available because it is in sync with my ipad and my desktop. I had abandoned paper planners for the last few years but I can’t doodle on the phone and I love using color and post it notes so the last year I’ve returned to paper.  There is a certain joy connected to planning on paper with colored pens
