Morning Glory

A timorous ray starts off the day From seeds of darkness, light grows Clear, blue firmament looks so bright To the early riser, a pure delight Noisy chirp fills the gardens and lanes Trees are awake from birds' celebration Sun takes the world in a warm embrace And impregnates the heart with new hopes Soft buds open to soak the light of love Their petals smile in the face of the sun Morning glow touches the mountains Beneath the earth a worm wriggles Gone are the night's endless woes And the aches of a sleepless body The sun enters my sorrowful soul And melancholy melts like snow.
