Purple clouds hang against a burgeoning blue
Brightening scene backdrops black trees on the horizon
Darkness again giving way to light brand new
Spirits of night... spell soon will be broken
Flickering stars once more bidding their final adieu
Chilly night air biting at my cheeks
Smokey haze rises from the neighbours' flue
Fresh melodies shortly will float through the sky
Pink quickly replaces purple against the blue
Promising one more moment with nature I can spend
Yes I am lucky to have another day to view
Rays stretch across the heavens reaching the valley floor
Sun's warmth softens white frost into dew
Almost immediately colors brilliantly abound
Blessed I am to have this day in my queue
