SUNRISE|| POETRY

I have seen many sunrises,
Have watched their glittering rays
Lit up the morning skies
I have watched the sun
Usher in new-born days,
I have seen erratic weather
Interspersed with rain and thunder.

I have known deep joys
And great sorrows,
Have meddled with puff adder
And played with cobra

Like an unfolding flower
Welcoming heaven's shower
I have known tears
And fears
In the sunrise
Of my life.
