Notes About The Poem

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
