I awake

To a soft thunderous pounding

Snooze a little while longer

In a blissful dreamy state

Then I rise,

Make the coffee,

And step outside

The wind blows

Whipping through the palms

The aqua green sea rolls and churns

In the strong morning breeze

The wind has changed

White wave tips dash along the ocean

Out to the horizon

Past where the color shifts

To a deeper shade of blue

White foam and froth

Bathe the shore

Foam and froth top the steaming coffee in my hand as well

A Peregrine Falcon Flies By

I Am Free
