The sky was a light red-orange Like the diluted grapefruit juice next to your morning cereal And as I breathe in the sticky air It seems like this moment was created for me As if the silence of the house And the grim darkness of the outside And the cool breeze entering from my outside window All came together and said "Let's come as one to make this just for him and him alone" Like when your friends throw you A surprise birthday party Or you get that Valentine's Day present you weren't expecting; The feeling is surreal because you are very very very loved So I thanked the trees and my pillow and the dreamy state of my consciousness And even the dog barking from the other side of the fence and I say "Thank you for this beautiful gift"
