0 Twenty-Four Hours

Each day brings many amazing events
First light feels like earth is holding its breath
It just awoke from a silence like death
The morning is a sweet and pretty song
All creatures rejoice and birds sing along
Noon is the hottest part of everyday
The sunshine gives energy to go play
Much goes unnoticed although it seems long
Each Day has many overlooked events
Nights are like a very soft and warm sheet
They calm and shelter and cover the land
The differences in lives and Intents
Do not explain the boredom that folks meet
When they could watch nights become days so grand
