A more peaceful image may exist somewhere, I've not been priveledged to see it!
Magic Dawn
by
BobbiJo McBroom
The sun came out to play today
It chased the rain and clouds away
Oh! Mom wake up Oh! Please don't pout
The sun's almost up! Please! Let's go out
Come on! Please Mama, let's go see
What the faeries left for me
We'll check the leaves and see if they grew
Maybe they've painted you roses for you
The birds are singing Please! Mom get up!
We can put our breakfast in a cup
We'll take it down and eat outside
The breeze will come from far and wide
It will blow our bubbles all about
Oh! Please get up and let's go out
It's been raining for Oh! So long
Hurry please Mom! Before the sun is gone
I've got your shoes Mom, Please I can't wait
Mom please get up it's getting late
We can play, "I spy with my little eye"
"I see magical colours" say "it's a magic sunrise"
She puts her feet down on the floor
Puts on her slippers heads out the door
The sun's not up it's still a spark!
My goodness baby it's still dark!
They cuddle so close in the front porch chair
Those first enchanted rays creep through the air
Baby nestles back to whisper with a sigh
"Hey Mom I spy with my little eye, magical colours up so high"
Says Mama, "Little One it's a magic sunrise"
Little one has taken her by surprise
She's discovered new magic, become more wise
Watching the dawning of wonder in her daughter's eyes.
