Merlion City 7

DAWN LIGHT

Dawn light sparkles with crimson rays,
My eyes marvel at brand new day;
Look to the East where all things start,
Confront new feast with cheery heart.


Dawn light sets free new pulse and zest,
My soul finds me on a bold quest;
Look deeper still to find my way,
Seek to keep will ready for play.


Dawn light speaks clear of harvest boom,
My heart now cheers blossoms and blooms;
Look deep within to sense a fount,
Plot win unseen as style now mounts.


Dawn light spurs moves in cast of light,
My mind lines grooves in-sync with flight;
Look beyond things to journey quest,
Prime playful swing to rapture zest.


Dawn light hurls joy with time to dance,
My words employ a glimpse of chance;
Look to this day to spin and weave,
Play funds grand pay to front fond gifts.


Dawn light flings time to take my time,
My life hurls rhymes to echo chimes;
Look to the East to these firm shores,
Strange Merlion beast for spice and more.
