Notes About The Poem

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

Joseph P. DiMino August 20, 2025 at 9:07 AM Indeed, summer can be quite enchanting, thinking of lakes and mountain vistas. Lovely reminder. sara Etgen-Baker August 20, 2025 at 5:36 PM I agree, Joe. Summer is an enchanting season. I remember days spent inside my father's boat on a nearby lake watching him fish. Wishing you a splendid evening, Sara
