Early Sunday Morning

Early Sunday Morning By Franklin Price 10/25/2015 Early Sunday Morning Well into the Fall Darkness still surrounds There is a quiet pall Colored leaves not visible In the darkness of the day A light breeze moves the chilly air The sky becomes a lighter gray The neighborhood is stirring Kitchen lights begin to glow I'm not the only one awake I heard the neighbor's rooster crow Soon people getting ready For the beginning of the week Looking in the closet For the clothing that they seek Sunday's best should be the dress After all it's sabbath day Be off to church to hear the word See what the preacher has to say Listen closely to his sermon Show reverence from the pew Feel the spirit of the lord He's always there for you I pray your day is joyous This further thought I now append That health and happiness is yours That's my wish for you my friend
