Good Morning, High Above the Clouds

A stormy night leaves me muddled and down.

I look out upon the morning with a frown.

The sun rises, and covers everything in light.

Shining, with a magnificent glow, over everything in sight.

 

And I watch as my world changes before me,

More beautiful than I’ve ever seen.

All the remnants of the storm fade,

Another one of nature’s shows is now displayed.

 

It’s funny how it changes everything,

How many a happy thought begins to spring

While under the influence of the Sun.

And this glorious day has only just begun.

Just wrote it as I was waking up this morning.

[外人 (Gaiji..]

loved it :) great theme, well written :) What i liked the most was the fact that you followed a rhyme scheme (AABB) using a kind of an "assonance" in the verses 5-6 xD
Can i ask you a question? Have you ever tried to write a haiku? You should definitely give it a try ;)

And you made me think of Here Comes the Sun!

Beautiful! It's making me think of one of my favorite songs, After the Storm by Mumford and Sons, and a quote I love from Lord of the Rings. I love it when poems do that!

A beautiful and positive poem. The warm days of Spring make us come alive and feel better. I like your description and very good ending. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.

This is really nice.
The theme is actually really similar to my poem, "Awakening," which I also wrote when I woke up one morning.
Nice work, beautiful. :)
