A Nightingale Sings of Dawn's Glory

A Nightingale sings of dawn's glory In the still of the night She croons in crescendo the story Of how the sun gives light The Mighty Creator who made her Made the ball of fire too That transforms the darkness to a blur Of reddish-orange hue The dawn in its painted pageantry Woos the nightingale's tune It's a stunning trendy tapestry With colours of heav'n strewn The bird knows the summons of the dawn Yet does not wish to stop Soon the soft pink curtains must be drawn Mesmerising backdrop Her last aria comes to an end With the rise of the dawn The sun silences his sweet li'l friend Yet her lilt lingers on 05.18.2021
