Illuminated Beauty.

[written 12.13.08]
Fumbled out of bed this morning;
It was too early.
Looked out the window,
All I saw was gloomy-
Another foggy morn'.

Didn't think to say "good morning";
Maybe I was just too tired.
Nevertheless Your mercy is pouring
Down on Your child
as you welcome me to a new day.

Not sure why You desire me
but the evidence is everywhere.
Through fog, sun hits the trees.
What I once hated dances on the water.
You've illuminated the beauty of a foggy morn'.

You paint a photograph-
You know what captures my eye;
And you put me in it-
You know my heart's desire.

Life, though often foggy, is always beautiful.
