Smiles and Cheers

The weak rays of dawn
Struggling to 
Drive out the darkness
Her sleep-drowsed heavy eyelids
Opening slowly
A semblance of light yonder
And here,
The big deep brown eyes
Forcing the thick eyelashes 
To part
The apparently shy sun
Not in too great hurry
And here,
No flutter,
But languid movements.
Cheer spreading across the sky
And here,
Smile suffusing her face
After all, 
With the Eastern gleam
Another
Looked forward to day begins,
Another
Chance for love to beam
