The Sabbath Approaching Poem by D Loveday Morris

The Sabbath Approaching

The Sabbath approached with egar anticipation
Signaling it's time for rest and rejuvenation
As I sat by the large glass windows in my living room
I watched the evening's peace hovering over the window pane,
The clouds pulled its curtains over the sun
bidding goodbye to the afternoon
Trees yawned and twisted their tired heads,
And wild animals rush off to bed
While babies nestled close to their mother's breasts
Awakened after an afternoon rest
With eyes opened wide andheads turned to the sky as if to say
This is such a blessed day
