the first minute of waking up early

First minute of waking up early

Is the time when I know I am OK.

Even if I have to go to work,

Or walk the dog

Or do things I don’t want to, either now, or today,

I am here sober and healthy and the day may be good

If I think of it so.

The trip of to the washroom to use toilet and brush teeth.

When I’m half done with the brush, the minute is gone

Yet I have already done so much to be ready

For the day,

And although I may not know it,

In the space right behind my eyes

I am grateful to be up and going

In this world still moderately still and silent.
