Let morning last, for once!

Lord let the morning last forever,
so we can finish something clever.
I’m always running out of
morning time. Where we get to just be.
Let my time alone with Thee last all day.
Let the morning last forever for once
so i can see
something fully, in all its cadenced nuanced light story; like
that bear shaped tree on that hill right there, already leaning
over that sea into her glory,
which i tried to study all night, the story of just one hilltop.
We know the bear tree was left by natives here, as a sign
for someone to see. But it’s only visible in morning light.
And I need time to interpret it in Love.
The rest of the day, the military compound overshadows it
as it does us all somehow now. I want to be synced up with your song instead!
For God you are always singing!
God, you like to just see with me and listen, that’s how we are together, you and me,
We know most of the story already, You being so clever.
So let the morning light not run out today, switch some eternal lever.
I’m tired of running around begin clever, gathering flecks of the day, partial expressions
into my mere satchels of sight, which can barely hold marbles,
much less Your Light.
Just let me dwell in Your morning light for a while, a little longer…
until you see me, whole altogether already, stronger
as i know i also must be to Thee by morning light.
Until this all happens, Lord and old friend,
don’t let the morning light run out on me again!
Help me be a bear like this tree, leaning only into Thee.
