"midnight Morning"

My eyes gaze upon beauties before me Fireflies dance upon the July air In all their wonder all I can do is stare With each flicker they come and go Crickets chirp and call to one another In such a simple life even they will find a lover Moonlit shadows pass through the trees Casting pale silver reflections upon my eyes And so I close them to the star covered skies The wind brings a chill as I lay in the grass Time slips away while I lay still and silent Midnight is gone but the dawn brings violet With pink streaks upon the vast horizon A soft dew sparkles upon a nearby lily And a rabbit hops by looking rather silly It hops about full of joy and life And I know that I am like that too Full of dreams and hopes to pursue And before me the sun has risen And I too must rise with the day
