In still darkness, not quite light,
A lone chirp rings, wings take to flight.
Trees rustle-breaking silence,
Fledglings coo!
As the first rays of light break through!
As dew drops gather in the morning fog,
Early risers getting ready for a morning jog.
Now animals and birds rise alike;
As fur rises and feathers rustle-
With a distant cry of cockadoodle doo!
The first rays of light break through!
Now the city awakens with hustle and bustle,
And one is busy-ready for a day’s toils and tussle.
As engines rev and purr, resonating mechanical grow,l
Street dogs take to action, barks and a howl!
However, through cold morning silence
In forest green-
A cycle begins, predator and prey nowhere to be seen.
Now with all life awake- flora and fauna too!
The first rays of light break through!
