Good Morning

It was still dark outside

when I left her apartment this morning.

walking down Forbes Avenue I saw the sun

rise. And I glanced over my left shoulder and smiled

a greeting to a view I'd never seen before.

Closer to my door. Sun higher. I walked with purpose today.

One block away, at the green light--the corner of Atwood and Bates,

baby blue breeze and haze in my eyes focused into downtown

and for the first time all summer I felt that everything was just right

just the way it is

right now.
