A Bright New Morning

41 Comments

No soul in sight

It’s getting light,

The air is crisp,

Beneath the wisp

Of clouds that let

The sunshine get

To shine on me

Before I ski.

 

Okay, so I made that up; I’m not going to ski, but I can imagine and dream a little.

 

But those who stand there on this hill,

Are feeling anything but chill.

Filling  lungs with crisp, clean air,

Joyful and without a care.

Oxygen revives their brains,

As the plaque inside them drains.

O-k-a-y…

I must stop this silly rhyming,

As I’m losing all my timing.

***** 

Have a happy 2025.

Thank you, Pat, for the photos.

    If you cannot ski or anything else for that matter, at least you can always dream about it. Frohes Neues Jahr 2025, Anneli!

    Fun rhyming! That’s a beautiful view, Anneli. I haven’t been on skis since the 1980s…

    Frohes Neues Jahr 2025! 🎉 Great poem and of course, you activated lots of memories of skiing, both downhill and cross-country. I don’t do either any more. Those falls … ugh. Cheers.

    I’m not a skier, but I do love a good winter wonderland. Your poem was fun; I’m looking forward to more photos and poems in the new year. I hope it’s a good one for you and yours!

    Lol. Thanks for the laugh, Anneli. You definitely got me chuckling with the “plaque.” Lol I knew it was downhill (skiing) from there. I can’t ski any more, but it was fun back in the day. 🙂 Happy New Year.
