Summer Dawn

Daybreak and the rosy light

Of rising sun, pink-tinged, climbs high,

Dispersing the dark shades of night

That linger in the western sky.


Awakening birds give out shrill notes

Trembling in the misty air

Cadenzas for their warbling throats

Repeated like the morning prayer.


Bejewelled cobwebs on the hedgerows

With diamond dew-drops on each thread

Sparkling as the soft breeze blows

Where early morning light is spread.


The sweet new smell of early morn

Evoked by the rising sun's first rays

Lend freshness to each summer dawn

That promises bright sunny days.
