In the early morning I sit awake in
total silence it feels as if I am the only one awake.
But I know all over the world I am not alone
night workers, mothers, elderly the worried.
We form a tribe of folk who choose or have no choice,
we sit or lie and gradually listen to
the birds slowly waken and begin their
chorus, the street lights flicker and die and
finally there is stirring.
Cars start to drive past , the heating whirs to life and
Slowly the day begins.
Viv, I could feel the day as it slowly started to awaken! And, no you are not alone, I’m right over here with my coffee too!

Beautifully written Viv. I think if you choose to be awake at that time then it is the best part of the day – so peaceful… but not so much the case if you’ve struggled to sleep.

We could have an early morning club, since I am generally awake much too early as well. I think it is a great time to get stuff done or to write and ponder.
