The Awakening

Cool droplets on petals 
from the melting frost
glistening like diamonds
so soon to be lost

As the sun casts it's light 
shadows lingering there
mingle with the rising mist
dancing in the air

And so the world wakens
each day bright and new
 with golden rays of sunshine
 and fresh morning dew

O that my heart
like the dawning world
could awaken bright and new
as it was on that day
when I first kissed you
