Blessed Day

BLESSED  DAY 
At the crack of dawn
Begins another day
Call of chirping  birds 
Drowns the sloth away

Eggs us on to
Forget all  woes
Gives us impetus 
Heartens our souls

In the sweet warmth of sun
Jeers withheld melt soon
Kindles our spirits anew
Leads us to a bright noon

Moving with alacrity
Nimble footed and sure
Off we set to our goals
Purposeful and secure

Quite daunting sometimes
Roads we take may seem
Still we persevere forth
Till the lamp posts beam.
