Monday Morning (2022)

streaks of light beneath the grey
it's sunrise on a winter's day
soon to be gobbled by the cloud
Monday morning sky a shroud

promise of rain with no UV
silhouettes are coming to be
mountains emerging from the mist
the subdued morning light has kissed

evergreens, trees with no leaves,
traffic in motion as everyone leaves
to do whatever wherever they go
in the morning's regular flow -

crows disperse from last night's roost
coffee is brewing just for its boost
dreams we dreamt have faded away
like streaks of light they couldn't stay

on Monday morning, start of the week
the winter's day of which I now speak
positive thinking radiating
beginning the day we share our fates in...
