Sun’s rays gently creep between
My curtains not shut tight
Its warmth and light caressing me
Chasing away the night.
The morning’s chorus has begin
With songs of many birds
While tiny flowers open to show
Their beauty to the world.
Down below, out in the street
Children begin their play
With so many friends for them to greet
There is no school today.
Shades and shorts and summer shoes
No need for coats this morn
A sunhat, parasol perhaps
It’s sure to be quite warm.
Life seems so much better when
The days are bright and breezy
A smile, a wave, “hello” and then
The mood today is easy.
