The cycle of night and day starts anew as a rising sun inks ebony blue. And causing crystal drops of morning dew to sparkle like diamonds, Dawn's light breaks through. As the horizon bleeds a blood-red hue, the twinkling stars disappear right on cue. A lone owl breaks the silence with a "whoo," as shapeless silhouettes come into view. And a rooster crows cock-a-doodle-doo, announcing Sol's spectacular debut. Sleeping songbirds wake to bid night ado, basking in the light, as they're known to do. Cotton clouds absorb tints like a tissue, held aloft with an invisible glue. Nature's frescoes, no artist can outdo, for inspiration, it's Her; they look to.
