The Morning and the Evening

The morning has been a lot gorgeous.
As a gift, the sun we get with no price;
With no fear, lizards and monkeys sunbathe.

Such good weather invigorates natural life.
Gathering creatures at the same place,
To build optimistic morning smiles on faces.

The sun has reached midday zenith; 
Enjoyable and healthy becomes life, 
Strifeless, delicious fruit animals enjoy.  

Time for toiling hard and enjoy a pay;
For we see evening approaching slowly,
Eventually, gathering dark clouds naturally.

To shamefully have the sun plunged into its cradle.
Quenched light, in control we must have tomorrow;
With today’s toil, we can shun startling changes in life.
