I Am The Morning
I am the morning I greet you each day .
Before your eyes open , God ’s universe at play
Sunshine on the horizon , you have little to say
A new day’s going to greet you any old way .
Now the fact of the matter is I’m here to stay
So how you greet me , does that matter today?
You can resent me with your face in a scowl
Or you can embrace me with a hug and a howl .
Love it or hate it , life is like that .
It comes at you each morning as a matter of fact .
You can choose to embrace it , put on a good face
Or hide in a corner and decide not to race .
God gave us all that freedom of choice .
To influence , inspire and learn to rejoice
To embrace life with love , persistence and passion
As God blesses us each morning with glorious compassion .
Yes , I am the morning , each day a fresh start .
Try never to miss me and hold dear in your heart .
The thrill of each morning and dawn’s brilliant skies .
To greet as God’s blessing as you open your eyes .

After reading this, I felt as
new born and as fresh as the Morning.
"I am the Morning" is beautifully
painted. I love it.

| WOW!!! The birds chirping, the sun and the new day is such a blessing to have and wake up to. This is beautiful as he gives it to the wicked, just, good and evil. |

I agree with Andre.
This is beautiful...sure beats the Bible thumping about God, when you can enjoy nature's gifts and the heavens. Well done. |
