Good Morning

The sun peeps its weary head over the hills,
Bathing the world in its glow.
The morning sky is streaked pale pink,
The earth's bright morning bow.

The tears of the Moon, as the wax from a candle,
Lie glittering on the frosty ground.
The stars seem to have fallen in perfect harmony,
To create a magical carpet all around.

Bleary eyes open,
Little ones awake,
Rub away the remainder of sleep.
Dreaming time is over,
All the sheep are counted,
And it's time to go and live out those dreams.

The house is, oh, so quiet as she tiptoes down the hall,
A silhouette in a white night dress.
She slips up to the window, rests her hands upon the sill,
And wishes for happiness, no more and no less.
