Before
we wake,
we are huddled under
blankets
and dreaming.
Before
we wake
there are others
living,
breathing,
chirping,
growing.
Before
we wake
the ocean's waves
soak its rocky beaches.
Before
we wake
birds talk
about what today
will bring.
Before
we wake
the trees search
for heat
and light
amidst night.
And...
Before
we wake,
the world
goes on.
