Yes

Posted byPhillip Knight ScottPosted inPoemsTags:, , , ,

The morning starts with yes
wrapped in the smell of dawn

as it sheds the night
star by star

A no always stings
the throat & those sheer curtains
are so inviting

The moon reflects
on the day star by star

We say yes

  3. The weekends can be my “No” mornings, slipping back to sleep until 9-10am. “Is it lunch yet?” I ask my wife. “Just about it”, she replies.

  6. “star by star

    We say yes”

    This is such a simple, yet profound truth. By merely rising, the majority of us do not even realize we’ve made a choice to say “Yes” Love this.
