Dawn Poem by Michael Kersting

The light of a new day
Spread it’s wings
Over the proud land
With it’s wide open fields
And lonely red barns
Making the morning
Birds sing a new
Song of welcome
To a new day

The fresh morning breeze
Whips up a stir
Blowing the daffodils
Across the bright
Fields of yellow daisies

The new buds
Burst forth in full bloom
Adding new colour
To the view
And new
Fragrances
To the air

The lonely squirrel
Pokes his head cautiously
Out of his safety hole
Sniffing at the
Fresh morning air
And looking
To and fro
For his early morning meal

The butterfly
Unfolds its wings
In welcome
To the
Bright
New day

Nature has
Awakened
And
All’s well
With the world!
