A Day Is Born

Early morning just before dawn,
Droplets of dew glistening on tender blades of grass
Ole Sol is beginning to peak from beneath the clouds
It won't be long until another today is born

Coolness is in the air just before dawn
Flowers are shaking their sleepy little heads,
Spreading their petals for all to see
It won't be long until another today is born

Gods' creatures beginning to stir just before dawn
Tiny insects jumping from leaf to leaf
Crickets chirping, wake up, wake up
It won't be long until another today is born

Bumble bees making their rounds just before dawn
Suckling the golden nectar from flowers that abound
Butterflies coming awake, spreading their wings
It won't be long until another today is born

The birth of a day just before dawn
Amazing to see and hear this glorious event unfold
To realize that today is another tomorrow in disguise
And yesterday is but a passing memory
