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
