Triumphant at a 24 Hour Diner

As I see the sun swallow the window in my view

Blanking out the neon sign on it, only a bright clear hue –

remains, the sun spotlights me, my shades, are already, affixed,

I’m feeling zen vibes on a morning like this.

The cold water hits and the black coffee hits harder,

first day jitters no more, my mind’s already farther,

looking future-past same-time, I’m zooming out,

it feels good when hard work pays off, no doubt!

I spent time in the shadows waiting for this brightness

so I cherish sunshine now, holding on with tightness,

If I could I would sit here until it’s thunder and lightning

and drink so much coffee that I’ll need teeth whitening.

The golden sunshine hits me and I know the deal-

Never cease to amaze yourself, keep going, for real. – RSM
