Morning comes the sunrise
Emanating from celestial skies
Beautifying the earth for those
Looking on in replete repose
The birds awake to greet its rising
With songs from their heart’s appraising
Feeling gratification for the heavenly glory
Which reveals life’s hidden story
The flowers be-sprinkled with dew
Rejoice anew
Lifting up their petals with pride
Happy to be on eternity’s ride
When the day is done
All eyes turn toward the setting sun
As the day bids farewell to the light
And announces the coming of night
When at last the night embraces the earth
With venerable mirth
Gazed upon by the moon and stars
Pitying earthling man the folly of his senseless wars
