Oh what a beautiful mornin'
Oh what a beautiful day
I've got a beautiful feelin'
Everythings goin' my way
Oh, the trees they're a standin' like statues
Oh, the trees they're a standin' like statues
But they sway and they sigh as they feel me pass by
And their branches are reachin' right up to the sky
Oh what a beautiful mornin'
Oh what a beautiful day
I've got a beautiful feelin'
Everythings goin' my way
Oh what a beautiful day!

- Comment from author about the poem: Just a little ditty that I sing to myself, many a morning as I walk along tree lined streets. It's the first song heard in the musical "Oklahoma" and one of my favorites, I just had to add a verse. Hope you sing along!

I’ve heard of this song .. and I like your lines about the trees ))
Lovely writing
Thank you my dear friend for reading and liking. I love it so much, looks like I did it twice, not intentionally. lol I'm afraid if I go back and try to fix it, I'll really screw it up , which is what happened in the first place. Have a great day!
read with a smile and a warm glow ..
that not even the prospect of the days work ahead is going to rob me of ..
Neville 🙂💜👍x
So glad it brightened your day my dear friend, as you always brighten mine. Hope beautiful days are always with you!
Oh no, I'll be singing all day now. Hugs ❣️🤗
Hugs back at ya! Keep singin' my friend, who knows maybe we could start a movement.
Chanting away
Lovely way to start the day
Belt it out dear friend, let's teach the world to sing as the old Coke commercial goes. Thank you!
(oh such abundant gaiety in worded poetry
oh what imagery of nature's divine in a rhyme
how in-step with each musical note
fingertips digging deep in that coat)
hey, I get something for trying right?
lol
(but sadly my cherished friend
we have found something we don't agree on
'such a sad day'
musicals, are just a no no for me
I'm so sorry, i mean no disrespect
but any time
I see people deep in conversation
and then a second later
they're all singing operatic facing the camera
I'm just cringing, my insides being twisted something violent)
erm.. not that i have strong feelings about it
no, really
you know me, I'm all easy going foolishness
.. just you know
I still have nightmares
about 2005 Producers and Chicago with richard gere
i still shudder at the mere thought
screeching 'where's me salt')
lmao
I'm half joking..
🤦♀️
please, forgive my uncultured ways
A beautiful feeling indeed. The song of the south was one of my favorites as a child. O what a beautiful morning was a song I sang many times to lift my spirits. This poem brought it back to mind and I thank you for the lift.
Thank you dear friend, I'm so glad the song brought back good memories. Whenever I sing it on my morning walk, I can't help but feel wonderful. Good thing I walk really early because I belt it out, and the neighbors would think I'm mental. Keep it in your heart and on your lips!
Wow. It's such a different yet positive to hear it out. Thanks for sharing!
I am so sorry I didn't see your comment until now. I really appreciate you reading, and glad that you enjoyed. It's such a happy tune, can't help but make you feel good!
I can hear the music in my head as I read this piece, a wonderful way to welcome morning, be it sunny or gray. Thank you for that.
And thank you for reading! As you say, be it sunny or gray, it makes for a beautiful day. Take care my friend!
