Time To Crow

Your voice laps like falling stream,
Coming across howling space.
Your face beams a summer dream,
Sets my pulse off for a race. 
My eyes wink like morning dew; 
Like bees busy on nectar. 

The sun's solemn crawl mimics 
Your coming; slower than snail. 
Each moment, your delay ticks
My day with smiles void of veil;
I put on a spotless dress, 
Perfume the air with sweet scent.

What a fun to see the glow
Of a cock ready to crow!
