An Unceasing Tick-Tock
Call out to the morning,
Let it raise its curtain on your day.
Watch the golden dawning,
Paint the sky in glorious array.
Smile wide at the sun shine,
Let its warmth turn the grey skies to blues,
Watch all yellows combine,
In such extraordinary views.
Lift eyes and scan the sky,
Let it wake up your still sleepy head.
Watch the clouds floating by,
Where eagles proudly fly, their wings spread.
Pause and breathe in the awe,
Let its wonder fill your mind with balm.
Watch all the magic pour,
Leaving one with peacefulness and calm.
Move along the hours,
Let them advance by the changing clock.
Watch as times own powers,
Are heard by an unceasing tick-tock.
Wait then for the darkness,
Let it close its curtains on your day.
Watch the twilight progress,
As the night holds the world in its sway.
