The day dawns crisp and bright, the sun rising, And day after day time repeats again and again; Over and over each day rises, beauty unfailing, I have dreams where there is no sorrowful pain. Days sweetly unfolding, Where love is dwelling; And the sadness rests. I recall all my paths the sad and the best, In my springtime youth all days were endless; Now each is precious, beloved and quite priceless, And with each new dawn I thank the Almighty, up above. ___________________________ April 29, 2015 Poetry/Rhyme/Up Above Copyright Protected, ID 04-667-950-29 All Rights Reserved, 2015, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Days, sponsor, Thomas Martin, Judged 2015 First Place

A favorite poem of mine, right here! You have such a miraculous gift of choosing only the most beautiful, elegant words. Another thing I have to say about this specific write... Omg! Is this not the truth? Wow! My thoughts exactly! Time is such a strange thing! I swear, years of my childhood equal decades of my adulthood. It seems like it should be the other way around! A 7!
