Memoirs of Day

The rise of the sun,
As mists dance on the old pond:
Entwined with the breeze.

Glistening gardens,
Flowers frolic in the wind:
As birds chirp their hymns.

The ivory clouds,
Tickle the laughing mountain:
While the meadow smiles.

Flight of the red hawk,
From the bare cotton wood tree:
Soaring cobalt skies.

The praising wheat fields,
Worshiping the light of day:
Sun kisses their brow.

Sunset approaches,
Pastel colors paint the sky:
The earth bids goodnight.
