Today

Today

I arose in early morning and cast my

Eyes toward the sky.

I saw the darkness vanishing and a new day

Drawing nigh.

I heard the voice of mocking birds as

They fly from tree to tree.

Greeting the dawn of this new day and

Happy to be free.

The sun arose and cast its rays from east

Toward the west.

It showed the beauty of green grass and

Nature at its best.

Beautiful streams of water and lofty mountains high

Country gardens everywhere and cities far and wide.

Little children romped and played, they gave

No thought of harm.

It was a beautiful picture of innocence and charm.

The sun sank slowly in the west, still

Casting rays above.

In the last beautiful picture, I saw

Peace, joy, and love.
