Waking up ...

I wake up.
My eyes open and focus hazily through the gloam
A slow smile curves its way across my face.
I stretch my arms and trail it languidly across my body.
Suddenly, the day seems full of glorious possibilities.
And, I hug the delicious secret feeling within me.
I curl my toes in lazy circles
The sun sneaks in and gently chides me to wake up.
I play hide and seek with my persuasive playmate
and snuggle deeper in the recesses of white satin.
A few more minutes for myself
before the busy world beckons.

-Srividya Srinivasan
