Turning Shadows Into Daylight

Starting the day with a cold and icy desert morning, wrapping m blanket tightly around me, looking out the window. Watching the sun peeking just above the horizon, wish- ing it would rise a little faster and warm things up, here on earth. Slowly taking it's time, turning shadows into day- light, finally seeing it fully, and feeling it start to warm up our desert morning. Soon I will be able to leave the blanket on the bed and get up to shower and get dressed, getting ready for this brand new day in which to write poetry.
