The Start

I woke up this morning to joyful birds. It was lovely.
Instead of bracing for the morning marathon,
I let my body sink down.
Felt the warmth of the quilt on top of me
And breathed in my still asleep husband.
Every muscle unwound, every joint relaxed
and I thought of nothing but those singing birds.

Would I be singing today?
