Dawn

The foggy mists rise above the valley
the dark clouds move towards a distance unknown
The messenger moon pales out in silence
to the glory of the rising Crown

A lovely partridge beseeches its mate
A flock of geese fly yonder
An innocent child snuggles against its mother
As squirrels run about in search of food

Lo! Behold! The sun peeps out through the purple - pink curtains
a soft orange ball of wool
working its way effortlessly
turning brighter and stronger

Slowly shift the colours of the sky
The purple - pinks give way to a baby blue
The curtains have parted
till there is nothing but a bright round light

Every single day it seems
Darkness gives in to light
Night gives in to day
And cold gives in to warmth

As grief is replaced by joy
And failure by success
Belief and hope abound
A new beginning!

This is the splendour of the new dawn
This is the dawn of life!!!
