Waking to an air
so thick breathing
is a new challenge,
conscious and hard.
Rise to a day so warm
and bright energy is sapped
until a light breeze rejuvenates
and reminds you of a new beginning
for the one most dear to you.
He’s been awake for hours
due to heat and excitement,
his somber attitude of the past months
gone now he is free to start anew,
to forge ahead,
to create again.
You watch him leave smiling,
full of love,
and swear to be as equally motivated
to make him proud.
