Dawn. Night sounds of slumber A few owls hooted their last nightly call, And cicadas ended their rhythmic, high-pitched whine In obedience to the rising of the warm sun rays. The buzzing bees commence their flight, Flitting from flower to flower, sucking nectar. The zinnias sway in the light breeze And mingle with butterflies, so elegant and bright. Light and soft I hear the flutter of the old oak trees, As they dance in the rhythm of the growing day. While from afar the purple mountains Shed their cascades down into a clear lake. And as time moves on, I hear the monotonous toll Of an almost bell urging the handful faithful to praise, Singing softly some of their favorite psalms. From the silent forests clouds became overcast, Drops of rain began to fall. I hurried to my shed, And simply admired the rain and its pleasant drops. How sweet were the rhythms of the raindrops. Pleasure and peace spread all around.

This is a sweet poem. I like the mention of the forests causing rain. It is true that forests affect weather. A poetic start of a new day brings comfort to the imagination.

Dearest Victor, your poem beautifully captures the transition from night to day, painting a serene and immersive scene filled with nature's gentle awakenings. The imagery of owls, cicadas, and bees creates a harmonious symphony of dawn, while the swaying zinnias and cascading mountains add depth and movement. The quiet reverence of the bell and the soothing rhythm of raindrops bring a sense of peace, making your poem both vivid and tranquil—a true ode to nature’s daily renewal. Love and hugs

Dear Victor, the transition from night to day is so gentle, it feels like being wrapped in nature's hug. I love the imagery you bring of the owls’ last call, the zinnias swaying, the rain's rhythm which speaks to the peaceful moments we often overlook. What a beautiful reflection of the world's quiet unfolding. Winter Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
