MORNING, NO STOPPING

13/02/23

I woke up happy this morning,
No cause to complain,
No bland plan, the sky’s so plain,
Light in the window as I shave,
No pain.

Good to rock the morning,
Like a star with a new song,
Even if may things go wrong,
I got this melody in my head!

At the funeral of the old me,
No body mourns for him,
Cos it’s a new dawning,
Don’t needlessly mourn what’s gone now.

And in the open casket,
Some could swear they saw a yawn,
Cos the old me’s gone, bored,
I’m reborn!
Let e’m bury it all away,
My yawn says, “It’s a fresh day,”

So no mourners at the service please,
Cos it’s a new sun, not a black-hole,
Enjoy it and pray,
It’ll stay that way,
Keep morning in your mind,
No matter how the day goes.
