The Gift of Morning
Splendiferous, the birth of each new morn
as sunshine glows above the mountain crest-
while rays of light come forth as it is born,
I stir from efficacious full night's rest.
Empyrean, my thoughts of a fresh start!
So glorious to have another chance;
to meliorate my day- serve with my heart-
attend, with kindness, every circumstance.
Then lie at night once more for restful sleep-
until for sun, those darkest hours resign,
homologate more joys of life to reap;
I pray- thank God for this new day that's mine.
