[stylist] Poem: Inspiration

[Lynda Lambert]

Thinking of SPRING during a late winter snowfall in PA. Here's a poem looking ahead to Spring mornings.


"Inspiration Arrived Early This Morning"


I pressed 

my feet deeper into plush blue blankets

 

I stretched

my resting body and flexed my heels

 

I looked

slowly at the neon green numbers on the bedside clock

 

I remembered

it's the first Sunday morning of Spring!

 

I know

the rising sun can never be seen through a window that faces west
 

I listened

to the morning bird songs drifting into the room

 

I thought

about giving a gift to my lover this morning

 

I decided

it must be a divine offering fit for the gods

 

I remembered

 the shiny silver box in the next room

 

I  arose

 to get the magical surprise I would bring to him this morning

            

I brought

the gift. It was pure inspiration 

 

I lifted 

his warm arm - pushed the cool slender box under it

 

He saw

the new box of Cracker Jacks tucked under his arm.
