Aborning

In the chill of the morning As a new day is dawning, Rabbits emerge from burrows yawning Fish in limpid pools spawning Busy bumblebees from hives start swarming Pretty flowers on bowers adorning Noise from rustling trees informing Creatures of the forest a warning While birds in the air are reforming Kittens and puppies are performing As another day is aborning

Thank you, Deb, It was a change from the miserable poems I have been writing lately. This poem almost wrote itself. So pleased that you enjoyed it. Take care. ShirleyX
