A fog blankets the land,
the grayish mist hovering
in the rising dawn.
 
Flowering buds unfold,
their brilliant petals
coloring the morning.
 
After a peaceful slumber,
the forest stirs as the day 
begins in the wooded grove.
 
Timid babies peek out 
from the protective hugs
and caring of their mothers.
 
Lakes, once clear and smooth,
now ripple with famished fish
feasting on hovering insects.
 
The breeze begins to stir.
Whispering through the leaves,
it rustles amongst the canopies.
 
Nature’s glorious calm reigns.
The radiant sunrise of a new day
springs forth in a graceful beauty.
