One Early Morning: Poem

 


On early morning
I was outside running.
The sun was on, high and bright.
My sunglasses were on, exactly right.
Tippy toe,
How great is outdoor –
Urban escape
For my mind and body to shape.
A little bit of wind breeze,
A little bit of shadow from the trees.
A little bit of purple flower.
A little bit of warm shower.
Plip, drop,
Drip, drop.
Tippy toe,
Sea grapes, I command you to grow!
I would like to stay,
In the splatter of rain.
Meantime, no more drops.
The tropical rain stops.
My clothes are wet.
My curls are flat,
One early morning,
Playing and celebrating
Life overall, my neighborhood
Without umbrella and hood.
No sadness, no misery, simply happy,
With a little bit of melancholy.
