A new day

The sunlight speeding through the sky

Touching everything – low and high

Touched, in its, travels, a sleepy little town

And helped it discard its old nightgown.

Dawn was bright, spreading the light

Dispelling the shadows from a great height

Before its greatness, night had to bow

It had to pick up its bedding, and go..

Factories began to hum with activity and life

Glad as there were, that there had come a new morn

Whilst women started to sharpen their little kitchen knives

Eager to cook curry, rice or prawn.

Soon, over the town, spread a hustle and a bustle

And in the gym, athletes flexed their strong muscles

A  new day had been ushered in – the old one had gone

The sun smiled benevolently, as the day was being born…
