Daybreak In Richland Hills
Daybreak in Richland Hills
Written: by Tom Wright
August 7 2008
In Richland Hills the dawn is showing,
I sit on the patio peering over my cup.
From across the alley a Rooster’s crowing,
I sit motionless as the sun comes up.
I hear dogs barking a few hundred paces,
Chadick Farms is beginning to break into song.
Squirrels are scurrying to their feeding places,
I’ve two days to visit and that isn’t long.
This is the time of day I cherish most,
For God speaks to me in the morning air.
I hope early arousal hasn’t disturbed my host,
While the city awakes I’m deep in prayer.
