As the golden globe rose in the morning mist
The squirrel skittered across the growing lawn,
Going to gather his meals for the day.
The fresh green grass is covered
In droplets of dew that glint in the sunlight.
The pine trees are swaying with the breeze,
Filling the air with their needles.
Spring has awakened,
And it is arousing the flowers
To dance in the wind.
The birds whisper a song

Letting the earth know that spring is here,
Allowing the clouds to drift into place
Before the first person awakes.


The author's comments:
I woke up early one morning, before dawn, and I couldn't go back to sleep so I looked out the window and watched the sun rise. I pretty much just put what I saw into words. I hope people understand that some things are worth sacrificing for a glimpse at they're beauty.

Its really good! I like the line "The fresh green grass is covered
In droplets of dew that glint in the sunlight." And the comment about how people need to understand that some things are worth sacrificing. I definitely agree
