SOFTLY DAWNS THE DAY

SOFTLY DAWNS THE DAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daylight unwraps the hues of the world with an awakening magic. Early morning comes as a promise kept, bringing a sense of serenity, a peace that invited itself into my soul and made itself at home. 

softly dawns the day
morning's gentle whispers sweet
summer's warmth awakes
