Early Light

In the first light
I am up and padding around
in bare feet
My holy mountains get the
first inspection
City lights linger for a few more minutes
The summer night has been warm, close
Coffee cannot come too soon

With the arrival of summer comes open windows and doors. Air moves freely and is assisted by large ceiling fans. The sounds of the city creep in to the house. Sirens are disturbing. Motorcycles are annoying. Thankfully, these noises are at a distance and not close to the house. Sleep is often elusive and summer adds its challenges there.
