Call out to the morning, <br />Let it raise its curtain on your day. <br />Watch the golden dawning, <br />Paint the sky in glorious array. <br /> <br />Smile wide at the sunshine, <br />Let its warmth change the sky’s greys to blues. <br />Watch all yellows combine, <br />In such extraordinary views. <br /> <br />Lift eyes and scan the sky, <br />Let it wake up your sleepy head. <br />Watch the clouds floating by, <br />Where eagles proudly fly, their wings spread. <br /> <br />Pause and breath in the awe, <br />Let its wonder fill your mind with balm. <br />Watch all the magic pour, <br />Filling one with peacefulness and calm. <br /> <br />Move along the hours, <br />Let them advance by the changing clock. <br />Watch as times own powers, <br />Are heard by an unceasing tick-tock. <br /> <br />Wait then for the darkness, <br />Let it close its curtain on your day. <br />Watch the twilight progress, <br />As the night holds the world in its sway.<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-unceasing-tick-tock/
