My first cup of coffee warm in my hand

The laughter of crickets in the air

Sunny blue skies stretch their glorious arms

As I sit on the back porch in my  chair.

Dew still sparkles on the deep green grass

Neighbors and dogs walking by

The smell of sweet heather carried by a slight breeze

I take it all in with a sigh.

A smile creeps across my once sleepy face

As this new day is calling my name

People to meet, new places to go

No experience is quite the same.

New sights and new smells beckon to me

To come and enjoy what they give

To face this new day to the fullest and best

To know what it feels like to live.

My last sip of coffee leaves its taste on my lips

The birds calling me with their song

Anticipation grows with the thought of this day

And my time on this porch isn’t long.

Yesterday’s tomorrow is here right now

And too quickly it will be gone

So I’ll savor the flavor of each moment it gives

‘Til it fades into another new dawn….

Psalm 118:24 – This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

(Day 2 of 31 days of trying something new – today I will meet the new neighbors who moved in behind us…time to bake again!)

Let's stay connected!

I promise to send some encouragement your way, and a bit of hope for the soul...

xo, jana
