Morning

Morning filled with memories of a night of dreams.
Is it hard to get up? - a little.
My feathered friends already tweet outside my windows.
Every morning it gets brighter and brighter. Good to remember and appreciate.
Coffee is in demand this morning, every morning. Aahh.
I enjoy the stillness of the morning
Before the face of God.
The bible on the screen of my iPhone
and His name on my lips.

Present

I am present in the present tense, but am I a present to anyone? I cannot present myself well enough to the public if I am not clear on who I really am. To be present to another is vital for life. Noone is an island. Present present present. If I am not present I am not. If I am not present I could as well be dead. Let people know you are present. Presently. You are a present to your neighbors, You have to believe that. It is not a haughty self promotion, it is a reality in social life. Then be as observant and as considerate as you can to be that precious present.
