Start of Day


She rose once more from the blackness

Night screamed silently as she left

Dawn jumped and leaped up to greet her

Knocking the birds from their nests

Flowers woke from their slumber

Opening petals to greet the day

Animals bowed to her majesty

For she’s keeping winter at bay

She climbed to the height of angels

Soft clouds cushioning her steps

She shone down on all of creation

She will stay there until she sets.
