Morning Song

    The last few moments of darkness before the morning light
    creates a stir of dawning as they kiss away the night
    the hazy fog is lifting like a spray of mist upon the sea
    leaving behind the dewdrops ...the flowers spot of tea
    a breeze transforms the idleness to the motion of a choir
    soon the gloom will change into a field of beauty to admire
    the skies begin to lighten.. the clouds gather in fancy white
    a brilliant spot is rising... the conductor of colorful daylight
    the petals open slowly atop stems both short and long
    preparing for the break of dawn.. to sing a morning song.
