Early this morning the moonlight shone through clear mountain air onto my bedroom floor, lighting my way in the dark.
Now, through the open window in my office
creeps the cool morning air,
and along with it the early morning sounds of birds waking,
greeting the new day.
The beginning of another clear blue sky is just visible through the dark leaves, with the sunrise just touching the very tips of the treetops.
All is quiet, nothing to break the peacefulness of this moment.
