In the morning

The sun happily raises its hands
Jumps from its snooze
Brings the news of dawn
To everyone in rest
The wonderful shadings
Observed by mist on knolls
Mountains and valleys
Thus, the dawn begins
The day dawns
Crisp and clear
Dawn chorus
Melodious chirps of birds
Drifts from valley to valley
Fresh and windy
Cool and crispy
Air is enjoyed
Only by the early walkers
The snowy, fluffy
Yet lazy
White clouds float
All along the sky
The cozy
Apathetic people in bed
Start their day
Brightly as the dawn
