It always surprises me how nice it is
to sleep outside
and wake with the earth
and last night was cold
to say it lightly
eight hours of dream filled sleep
and having the birds as an alarm clock
make coffee a needless thing
feet wet with dew
and eyes bright with the morning sun
I was even able to beat the kids out of bed
which is never an easy task of late
good morning earth
it is nice to see you again
thanks for being there for me

Talking Plant,
I agree. I love sleeping on Lake Michigan beaches the best. A few years ago I drove out to Utah to see my friend and slept outside almost every night. I even cried one night because it hit me how insignificant my existence is compared to the universe. (Thanks to Cpt. Morgan too.)
The only thing is… I would rather hear my alarm clock as opposed to those damn killdears in the morning. They are a little too hyper first thing…
