A Generous Guest


I've been spending more time in the sun room lately.
Situated at the front of the house and facing eastward,


 it is the first room that greets the morning sun,


welcoming it with familiar hues, making it feel at home. 
 

 Depending on the season,
 it arrives around the same time every day,


give or take a minute or two. 



Today, it burst through
the window at precisely 7:24 am, 
in typical, mid-January mode. 


 It came bearing gifts, 
as it does, generously, with every visit,

 
filling the room with its comforting warmth and healing rays.


Sitting still, in the silence of the small space,
  pondering the preciousness of time,


I watched it wander effortlessly through the French doors,
and into the kitchen, where it stopped for a while,

 

to join me for breakfast, and welcome the day.



Has the sun appeared on your doorstep today?

Thanks for visiting!
