Rise To the Occasion

R-ays of the sun Friday
O-pen the morn with light;
N-ew dawn has broken,
A-s the day leaves the night.

B-eacon twenty-fourth February
A-ims to brighten the gray;
L-et the shadows vanish,
D-arkness fades away.
E-vening chill is over,
M-ist, haze and fog are gone;
O-pen your heart to life's trials,
R-ise to the occasion.
