Jamal (Beauty), 6 'Izzat (Might), 172 BE - Sunday, September 13, 2015 about 6:20 AM Pacific Daylight Time
An early rising
street lights scatter the darkness
in my neighborhood.
Morning coffee brewed
I open the window blinds
waiting for first light.
Pouring a hot cup
I take a sip and then walk
to the front door, open it.
I stand there watching
as street lights illuminate
Sunrise Avenue.
I say a prayer
giving thanks for the new day
a new week begins.
Sip by sip I watch
dawn illuminate the sky
turn charcoal clouds pink.
I watch a pigeon
fly from tree to roof and then
land in front of me.
