Everyday we're asked

when waking from slumber

to arise, meet this miracle,

in all it's splendorous existence

no matter the conditions,

some mornings are easier than others

depending on health, state of mind,

life's many concerns calling

that challenge our equilibrium, 

and it's our desires,

the passions that excite

deep inspiration inside us,

dreams we want to manifest,

which instigate emotional energy

pumping vibrance into senses

as we become truly alive,

anything contrary is a sign

a red flag, to stop, listen,

be curious about what's needed

so vitality reigns supreme,

often that means leisure,

get off the work treadmill,

view art, hear music, sing,

play in ways that rejuvenate

for future ability to show up.
