The early morning mist
Cast a pale wash
Over the scene entire
As the nascent dawn
Stained the realm
In a lilac haze.
While patchwork fields
Sparkled with dew
Studded the land
With myriad diamond lights
Which caught the sublime glory
Bestowed by the rising orb of day.
Light from the dawning sky
It’s ray of crimson hue.
Filtered through the mists
Afloat in the early morn
Where shadows of night
Lingered awhile at horizon
When darkness escapes from a vaulted ceiling
Gracing the celestial welkin
There we welcome a new day.
