Are you more of a night or morning person?

Morning. Whether I want to be or not.

in still morning air
beside a quiet lake.

at first sight; but shrinks
on second glance.

Foggy Morning [Senryū]

a figure approaches...
nope, just a shrub!

Brisk Morn [Haiku]

too cold to move, or dead?
unmoved by footfall.

“Spring Dawn” (春曉) by Meng Haoran [w/ Audio]

My Spring sleep is unswayed by dawn --
Though birds are heard through screen, still drawn.
Recalling night sounds of rain and wind,
I wonder how the flowers have thinned?

Original in Chinese:

春眠不覺曉,
處處聞啼鳥。
夜來風雨聲,
花落知多少。

PROMPT: Time of Day

Mornings. I’m a lark. It’s when I’m at my highest energy level.

Pansies [Haiku]

catch the morning sun, and
look like peeking faces

early morning:
it's still dark & darkly still.
one boat floats through.
