Rhonda Johnson-Saunders Poet Verse

The Birth of Dawn

Dawn's new light
bursts forth from pillowed dreams
in  bubbling  chatter of  birds  and bees
breezing by morning glories in praise of first sky.
As paling stars fall silent in sleep beyond a darkened moon,
I admire the miraculous birth of new day perfected by God's hands.

By Rhonda Johnson-Saunders, 12/17/14
for Nette Onclaud's Enchantment Through a Prism Contest,
Title #1
