Victorious dawn slowly escapes
the clutches of suffocating darkness
Brilliant specteral’s of red and yellow
slice through remnants of the blackness

Bird song resounds through the trees
celebrating another day of living
Flowers curled tightly against the night
open colorful arms to the warm light

Clouds joyously bounce and dance
dissipating beneath the sun’s wrath
Raindrops leap from stormy clouds
falling in formation toward the land

Half of Mother Earth sighs in relief
her creatures now free to traverse
While across her massive expanse
dirt cools beneath the grip of night
