The Coming of Day



White fluffy contrails criss-cross

the azure blue skies above.

People moving across the

vast cosmos of space and earth.

Traveling to places of

refuge far from the rat race

of their daily mundane lives.



The orange flames of the sun

peek above the horizon.

Its colors reflected on

vast stretches of sea and earth.

Silhouettes of ships and rigs

appear in the haze of dawn

starting their work for the day.



Nature unfolds in fragrant

blossoms with the rising sun,

drinking its manna and warmth.

Life begins to wake and stretch

with the start of a new day.

Birds call in the dawning sky

to each other with delight.



The world awakens with joy

heralding the coming day.

It shines in the golden light

until once more the blue skies

become dark, and gentle sleep

descends upon the earth and

the heavens as night begins.
