First of Morning Uplifts
How lustrous the first of morning,
When Aurora spreads her brocade
Laced tassels weave through daylight’s ring--
As she glitters on fragrant glade.
While midstream, breezes decorate
A harbor lined with tulips red;
In vivid inlays quite ornate
Till birdsong explodes, overhead.
Imbued by some godly delight
Hopeful revelry shines aloft--
That I, a keeper of the night
Lay wide- awake on prairies soft.
Beholden by dawn's jubilee
The wisp of heaven breathes in me.
