The sun appears at the edge of our world
Opens her lips and smiles her light
Morning has arrived, gone the starry night
Once again dormant life unfurls
Plants and insects clear their eyes
As a new cycle of life is dawning
Night has given way to morning
Many sleepy flowers uncurl and rise
With the coming of the giving rays
Butterflies dry out their outspread wings
In a far off branch a black bird sings
Ladybirds on pearlescent petals laze
Crickets jumping transient shadows
That move with the passing of time
Ants filing up a leaf in a military line
Lizards rustling, hidden in hedgerows
Beetles of shimmering iridescence
Shake a leg or two or four or five
Showing happiness at being alive
With sounds of varied cadence
The spiders repair their broken webs
Frogs croak as their tadpoles swim
The cobra displays “I’m the King”
And roses raise their colourful heads
All so happy that its morning
In awe of this brand new dawning
