Coffee at Sunrise HOUR 2: 7am

The majestic wonder – sky fire

is beginning to peak throug

hthe window. My guests are

missing the beauty –

 

but if I’m being honest they

see it more often than I do

these days. I’ll just remind

myself that I signed up for

this – the coffee is hot and

 

my ideas really are coming

strong, I just have to

 

write about what really matters:

 

And today that’s the newest

story of the Hummingbird Lounge.

 

The place where we gather to

revel and weep, to create and

inspire, to listen and be heard.

 

-M. Rene’

 

I guess I should probably explain what one of my goals is for today aside from completely finishing the full marathon – I want my poems to serve as the skeleton of a chap book or poetry collection titled the Hummingbird Lounge which is also the name of my Substack Newsletter. Today is National Humminbird Day in the US and I feel like this is something I can lean into and enjoy.
