You become a dragon in the morning,did you know?
Wake up early, very early, just as the sun
rises beyond the color turning trees.
It’s best to do this just as you get out of that warm
cocoon that you slept in all night.
I also find comfort, and for a little warmth,
to have a nice steamy dark cup of coffee
in hand, sipping and smelling.
Step outside, the transformation is starting;
take a sip, then breathe in slow and deep,
through your nose.
Then,
Blow out slow and small; now watch!
You are a dragon now!
Breathing smoke and steam into the air.
Now smile,
your childhood is back in your heart warming
what once was cold from days of work.
You are a dragon!
And here, in the mornings,
is your Dragon Morning Breath!
