the big lie in
I open one eye,i can make a quick asessment as to wether or not i am to open the other one....It is daylight,i can hear the blackbirds outside and most importantly my head is not spinning. What a relief!! I open both eyes and lie still for a short while,just in case my body decides to fall back to its' slumber. Not today. Today is a great day,the daylight shines bright through the curtains,the individual shafts of light are visible. I take a deep breath,the air smells clean and fresh. I reach with my palms,pushing with lazy effort. My heels are extended away from me as hard as i can. My lungs just flood with the morning air,full till bursting and pushing at my ribs. I start to breathe out,from my stomach,a weak groan which crescendos to a giant roar.............I am atlas holding up the world,my limbs are taught,flooding with the life of a new day. Rolling over on my bed I see the time. 0613,wow a lie in ! No wonder why i feel so good. Wiping the sleep from my eyes,i can hear the slouch of a steaming hot cup of tea making its' way along the coridor to me. "get up.................cup of tea" Opening my door to gratefuly recieve the vestibule of morning juice an inquisitive nose sniffs the air around my ankles " helo you". I shut the world out again and retire to my tranquil space again. My mind dwells on on freinds and fantasies,nights of laughter and mornings of warmth and passion. It is a new day and i am alive,from finger tips to my toes,i am alive. I wish someone knew it also.
