Over the horizon the sun peeks,
The silence is shattered by the colors it speaks.
A moment in time suspended in space,
The light overtakes the darkness erased.
How many words are spoken without a sound,
No greater a story has ever been found.
Nature tells its tale on the wings of tomorrow,
Repeating the story with time it will borrow.
The light with its awesome power,
Changing always with each passing hour.
There are those who believe it holds magic in its light,
Because for a moment it holds back the night.
But with its bright shine I see,
A reflection of God smiling down on me.
