Ode to the Day
SUCH A CALM CALM DAY, THIS SUMMERS MORN
JUST THE SLIGHTEST WHISP OF WIND,
A SOFT WARMTH CARRESSES MY FACE
SUCH A PEACE WITHIN
ALL IS QUIET AND STILL
JUST THE MORNING BIRDS
BREAK THE SILENCE
WITH THEIR TENDER CALL ,NEVER SHRILL
MY THOUGHTS REFLECT ON YOUNGER DAYS
WHEN MY INNOCENCE MATCHED
THE DAYS TEMPERMENT
A WONDEROUS CHILD I WAS
GAZING SKYWARD AMAZED IN AWE
AT GODS GREAT FIRMAMENT
HOW FAMILIAR THIS DAY FEELS
SO MANY TIMES I'VE BASKED IN THIS SPLENDOR
ALWAYS ,ALWAYS SO GRATFUL FOR LIFE
EACH FRAGRANT BLADE OF GRASS
EACH SPLENDID FLOWER ETCHED IN MY HEART
AND EACH SEPERATE DYING HOUR
IS YET ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL HOURS START
