Brightness

Today is a new day
Rays of sun shine like pure gold
Drizzling down from the sky
Like rain,
but happier.
The cool breeze,
swirling sweet smells of flowers
all around.
Gently comforting,
a refreshing embrace.
A sweet lullaby
Sung by the birds,
Waking the trees
from their nightly slumber.
Stretching their long limbs,
opening their eyes
old but lively.
The moon fades away
into the ever- brightening sky,
as she has had a restless night of work.
Silken rose petals,
laden with dew drops.
Crystals glittering in the sun.
As the morning spins
into afternoon,
the sun slides
to the center
of the soft,
blue
sky.
