This morning

As I awakened this morning I felt great. I took a hot shower, shaved, brushed my teeth, threw some clothes on and then looked at the clock. It was early, really early. Twenty minutes till 7:00 and I don't have to leave until ten after. Thirty to spare. I sat outside in the patio garden with the fresh air, watched the sun rise, and pet Maggie my landlords cat. I listened to the roosters do their thing, heard a horse and some sheep in the distance. I closed my eyes for a few minutes and felt a breeze of cool air on my face. I could smell the fragrant flowers with every breath I inhaled. I didn't want to leave. I wished I could have taken a snapshot of the moment, of that feeling. I only wish I could have shared the experience. Half an hour - 30 minutes - 1,800 seconds, regardless how you count it out, the moment unfortunately passed. Tomorrow, I think Ill capture another moment. Ill have a cup of coffee waiting for you if you want to join me....
