When moonlight fades from flower and rose Sweet mystery of dawn unfolds Now all the dreams of night will pale Wafting into lilac shadows As tapestry of daylight grows Rainbows linger in the dew Stirring nature and earth to wake As birdsong trills a new day glows Sun rays in forest light transpose We long to keep this morning calm Yet plans start spinning in our minds No time to gaze on peaceful willows Forget the brilliant lure of Nature’s shows Or daylight spun from pinks and golds There will be many more tomorrow’s. For Lines to Awaken Your Muse 2 Joseph May Line used : The moonlight fades from flower and rose First Place

Hello Suzanne … a nice positive verse to bring on a morn, but of course we need more than this for the day, but as you wrote, there will be more tomorrows when this virus succumbs - thanks Suzanne - Lindsay

“We long to keep the morning calm yet plans start spinning in our minds” .... I love mornings like this ... you want to enjoy it as it is, yet the beauty of it inspires one to conjure up the next adventure. I enjoyed the flow of this one.

Thanks so much, Vijay: This Covid-19 social distancing has enticed my Muse from hiding. Two poems in two days is an unprecedented record for me these past 4 years. Maybe the tide has turned. Appreciate your encouragement, always. SuZ

Love the imagery Suzanne, hopefully there will be many more tomorrows when this crisis is over. Good luck. Stay safe. Tom

My hopes too, Tom: I know if we follow the guidelines we will all make it through. I heard the countries that have malaria have fewer cases of Covid”19, as the chloroquine kills the virus. Time to get back on gin and tonics I think. SuZ
