When the Morning Speaks

When the moon waves goodbye and disappears from sight                                        When the bright and morning star says hello to the light                                   When the night, just before the dawn, has reached its darkest,                         Like an ocean wave rushing to the shore from afar, it halts by design              The night yields to the light because it has been commissioned by its                   Creator who so ordered the morning to execute His decree.

When the massive sun awakes and begins its ascent in the eastern sky        When the night has run its course and applies the petals of its brakes           When the light has awaited its turn to break the silence of the night                When time can no longer delay its dictates for the entry of sound
And when our blessed sensory organs burst into action                                      Its because the morning has spoken.
