Morning Sun
By John Cannon

Thin ribbons
of pale sunlight
slide in

along the edges
of the window blinds,

touching the fringes
of my drowsy mind,

slowly
luring me away
from vague images
and distortions of the past,

softly
drawing me out of
the chaos and confusion
of the dream world,

gently
enticing me
toward

the crisp
clean
reality ―

the amazing privilege ―

of being

here and now

alive.
