Familial Gatherings
Divinely Rising Sun
Dawn you get up to a glimpse of first light little before sunrise
Pastel old rose you see as you look out the window eyelids sticky
The same shade spread you saw a little past sunset day before
And yellow orange setting sun as it rises comes out the same color
Before too long you hear the all familiar sweet morning songs
Of Mother Nature helpers out from their roosting sanctuaries
Joyfully chirping “good morning” to all creatures near and far
Cacophonous yet at times rhythmic metered rhymed as well
Before too long the soft sunlight gracefully blankets your home
Plays shades and shadows interstitially to nooks and crannies
Like a breeze would on a cool morning wafting a whiff of the first
Fragrances of awakening smiling flowers stretching their petals
Reached for the morning paper you saw squirrel merrily nut munching
You deep breathed fresh air exhaled a rainbow mist squirrel stood still
Ah... such morning glory things you love to break a new day with are there
Coffee made better by familial gatherings as the sun divinely rises
