Reach out in the early morning mist, 
As the day's sun breaks the calmness of night, 
And rise to the new day, a new awareness of being, 
Shake hands with the world and smile, 
It's great to be alive. 
-Jonivan
That's my favorite poem, from when I was a little girl.  I taped it to the wall next to my bed so that it would be the first thing I saw every day when I woke up.  It kinda set the tone for the day.
Here's another poem, that I wrote myself.  I came up with it in response to a challenge put out by a women's atheletic magazine to create a poem that is 6 words or less about your favorite sport (mine was 7 words).  Their responses were awesome.  I wish I could remember some of them . . .. Any way, here's mine:
  
Early morning run.
Birds sing.
Feet fly.
Birds sing.
Feet fly.
It's a great challenge. Feel free to add one below, of your own, if you'd like.   
Take care, and thanks for listening! - Jules
