NaPoWriMo, Day 26

Today's NaPoWriMo prompt is to write a poem "that includes images that engage all five senses." I wrote a haiku sequence:


Morning



Ignore the broadcast.
Listen to the birds as they
share their morning news.

The sky turns piecemeal
ever lighter shades of blue
as it defines trees.

Air smells like freedom.
I open the sliding door.
Cats take it all in.

The most gentle way
to ease into wakefulness --
first sip of coffee.

A parting snuggle --
I wish we were back in bed
as we start the day. - Jeff Barnes
