Good Morning Sunshine Good Morning Sunshine; thank you for filtering stringently through my dingily dilapidate window; embedding optimistic rays of hope in my life,
Good Morning Cuckoo; thank you for waking up my gloomy sleep with your poignantly austere sounds,
Good Morning Grass; thank you for rejuvenating my dreary soles; as I trespassed on your voluptuous carpet; with your magnificent sheath of dew drops tickling my skin to unprecedented limits,
Good Morning delectable pet; thank you for clambering up my bed; awakening me with a pleasant jolt; as you flapped your slippery tongue over my rubicund cheeks,
Good Morning Shirt; thank you for imparting me with compassionate warmth; as I swung you over my naked chest the instant I broke my reverie,
Good Morning Wife; thank you for providing me your mesmerizing shoulders to rest upon in times of the treacherous night,
Good Morning Ducks; thank you for quacking so boisterously; that I became oblivious to all the loneliness and wretched depression that heavily circumvented my life,
Good Morning Air; thank you for so celestially wafting into my nostrils; seductively caressing my mass of unruly hair; to transit me higher than the heavens,
Good Morning Lotus; thank you for spreading your ingratiatingly pink petals into full bloom; inundating my solitary life with astronomical happiness,
Good Morning Tea; thank you for profoundly reinvigorating my diminishing breath; fomenting me to walk briskly forward with untamed exhilaration,
Good Morning Alarm Clock; thank you for deafeningly puncturing my eardrum; triggering me off from invincible sleep; when all other conceivable things had miserably floundered,
Good Morning Water; thank you for pacifying my thirst; inevitably providing me those few sips of liquid to quench scorched chords of my throat; the second I detached from horrendous dreams,
Good Morning Soap; thank you for providing me tons of enamoring foam; which metamorphosed my bedraggled persona into one of stupendously distinguished authority,
Good Morning National Flag; thank you for fluttering so handsomely in the atmosphere; my eyelids at dawn,
Good Morning Soil; thank you for impregnably holding the foundations of my dwelling; harboring my inconspicuous demeanor while I slept like a new born infant in the perilous night,
Good Morning Apple; thank you for providing me that incredulously quick bite before I eloped for office; prepared to kick on with my schedule for the acrimoniously monotonous day,
Good Morning Mother; thank you for silently creeping up beside me when I was in bouts of thunderously sound sleep; gently caressing my hair; embodying my shivering countenance with a sweater she had specially knitted for me in the day,
Good Morning Tree; thank you for generating appeasing draughts of wind that diffused through my window as the Sun crept up in the sky; making me feel that I was indispensably alive,
Good Morning Breath; thank you for blissfully circulating through my lungs; enveloping me with the tenacity to divinely pass the gruesomely precarious night,
And Good Morning World; thank you for granting me the right to harmoniously exist amongs’t you; walk shoulder to shoulder with your blessed grace; in every aspect of exuberant life.
