New day 

thrill of a new morn

as light rises slowly

spilling over the land

another day has arrived

shadows elongated

creeping over the ground

as the sky is ablaze

with many burning colours

sounds of a cockrell
is heard above the dawn
calling to the world
a brand new day is here

the night shift is over
a new one has begun
so while many slep deeply
others join the days hustle
