Minnesota Morning

I open up my sleepy eyes and seeThe morning just the way that it should beBy the setting of the midnight moonThe rising of the sunAnd the feeling like I've only just begunThe morning mist still lies upon the groundAnd it comes and goes but doesn't make a soundAnd the heavy of the midnight airLightens with the dayThere's a Minnesota Morning on the wayThere's a Minnesota Morning on my mindAnd it's precious as the fruit on the vineAnd I haven't seen a day like thisAnytime I've been awayMinnesota I am here and I'm gonna stayThe sunlight shimmers through the treesWhile the birds sing their peaceful melodiesAnd there seems to be a whisperSome magic in the airSomething I just couldn't find anywhereThere's a Minnesota Morning on the wayAnd I've tried a million times to find todayNow I know I'll never find oneWith a sky so blueOne that makes me feel the way I doThere's a Minnesota Morning on my mindAnd it's precious as the fruit on the vineAnd I haven't seen a day like thisAnytime I've been awayMinnesota I am here and I'm gonna stay
by Jeff Brooks


Good morning world. Have a great day. Troutbirder

    Beautiful words. Makes me want to pay a visit. Are things starting to green up there? Here in Utah I'm getting leaves on the forsythia, daffodil, tulip and day lily shoots and other things showing signs of spring. Love it!

    I just thought of you a bit ago. I saw a photo in the MCV (which I bet you get!) of moose in Sax-Zim! Wouldn't that be something to see..and yes a Happy Minnesota morning to you also..we are headed for about 56 degrees today and some sunshine..it may be too soon to say goodbye winter..I say that because March can be fickle:)
