Pinking Clouds

Up early today

With the first sign of light jumped

Up and dressed

With reason to head east

& meet the sun

It’s sad to lose

I heard the news

I sat outside a diner

Down by the shore

And cried

Not sad any more

I feel his spreading joy

If only I could dry the tears

There’d be a cup

Of hot coffee inside

Three cup’s courage

May be enough

To turn around

And look out over

The ending’s incoming tide
