my favourite time of day has always been the morning...often rising in darkness right at the first birdsong in the distance. (chuckle chuckle...one of the few benefits of acute hearing.....)
I like the stillness, the slowness and the fusion with nature at that time. I like it that there are very few other people around. I enjoy my morning walks with my little dog, Peg.

I also enjoyed my early morning time with my devon rex cat, William. But he died on the 18th december, which has been very hard. :cry:

I'm a morning person, and am always up before the sun, often at about 5:00 a.m. I am most alert and energetic in the morning, and it is pleasant to watch the sun rise and warm the earth. I am tired at night, so often go to bed fairly early. This sleep pattern seems natural to me.

Mornings are amazing, especially when there is mist everywhere!
I am usually not awake then, but maybe that is what keeps it from getting old.

In memorium topic

I was thinking of you, Millie, when I first saw this thread because I recall you telling greentea (in her thread about you as an artist making it) that you enjoyed the morning as a particulary creative time of day.

I am so sorry to hear about William--I think you mentioned him awhile back. Very sad when your animal friends pass away. :( Maybe you could paint a picture of him, how you remember his life.

I used to like the walk to school in the fall mornings, when the leaves crunched and there was a crisp frost/dew on the grass. Everything smelled so clean then.

Now I'm a night owl. I love the stillness at 3am. (in retrospect, the times when there are the fewest people about.. huh.)
