End of Journey

R-ain has stopped falling
O-n March twenty-fifth day; 
S-un is beginning to rise; 
E-vening chill has gone away.

A-nother morn has broken, 
N-ew dawn is now shining; 
N-o longer I see the dusk and twilight of the evening.

G-ray clouds have disappeared, 
O-nly when clime turns fair; 
N-ight darkness is over, 
Z-ero haze floats in the air.
A-fter the storm has faded, 
L-ight in the sky turns bright; 
E-arly mist passes from view, 
S-hadows are nowhere in sight.

E-very cloud up above, 
S-ilver lining is in there; 
C-limb the highest hill
A-s you can make it anywhere.
L-ose not standing your ground, 
A-im for sparkling victory; 
N-ot for a moment must you quit
T-o reach the
E-nd of journey.
