Rising early is not normally on my agenda, but it can offer untold rewards. Strong, hot coffee is imperative in my quest to chronicle the sunrise. I rise before dawn when the world is still dark, and before the birds break into song. If I lived on a farm, I would have to wake the rooster and remind him of his job. Together, we would watch the hard, black sky yield to gray, then fade to a pink touched with a golden glow, revealing the mist lifting from the field. A magic-infused breeze touches my coffee mug, and as I inhale, the promise stirs my soul.
Trance-like, I wander to my desk with the day’s music singing in my ear. My muse demands I transcribe her whispered stories. Transmitted through my fingertips to the hard, ebony squiggles etched on the ivory page, I don’t see black or white. I hear the song tinged in pink and golden hues. I taste the morning’s magical flavor, and the emotions vibrate, twirling intimately around the words as I sip my coffee.
How do you capture your day?

I am envious, for my mornings are nothing like yours. Not even remotely. I must be doing something wrong…

I assure you, this type of morning is the welcome exception not the norm. I only wish they happened more often. 🙂

I am a night person. My best hours are from 8:00 12:00 in the evening. My wife’s back is not the best which requires here to go to bed early evening. So, when she goes to bed I read my friends’ blogs and write on mine.

Once I get going, I enjoy my mornings and can get a lot accomplished first thing. But I also catch a second wind about 9 pm which sometimes pushes me to work into the wee hours of the night. I hope you are having a great weekend, Dwight. 🙂
