What a wonderful morning,
Up with the sun
Showing nature’s wonder to me.
With breakfast eaten and tea drunk
Off I went,
Went for my walk,
My daily walk with My River.
A beautiful time
With Nature’s artwork,
And of course her symphony.
Walk completed
Went home.
What to do now
In these strange times.
Had my shower,
Put the coffee on,
Found something to read.
With book and coffee
Sat in the sun filled conservatory
Reading and listening
As Maria and Tito sang to me
As I played Rigoletto on the Hi-Fi,
My favourite opera
Sung in a way that always moves me,
Moves me to tears,
Sadness yes,
But also of joy,
As their voices sail though the ether
And will do forever.
