Come! Let us greet the dawn,
throw back the curtained night;
inhale the newness of this day,
this glorious fresh born light!
Come! Let us greet the dawn,
yawn off the sandman's grit
and listen to the thrush's song
from where the branch he sits.
Come! Let us greet the dawn,
watch as the birds take flight;
embrace this day for it's a gift
that brings us much delight.....
Today's prompt [thanks Laura] is to write a poem evoking daybreak/greeting the dawn
It may be a poem about lovers parting at dawn or about dawn itself.
Please include ‘Morning’ or ‘Aubade’ somewhere in the title of your chosen poem
Either poem can be written in any rhyme scheme but since ‘aubade’ also refers to a piece of music to the morning then focus on making the words sound melodious.
For those who prefer more of a challenge, write in hymnal, ballad or a song format of your choosing
