Quiet, calm night
Clear skies soften
As sunrise’s faint shine
Stirs and greets a new day

Cool morning’s breath
Gathering droplets
To touch and moisten
Gentle, life-giving

Magical shining orbs
Settle upon tender grass
And freshened leaves
Rising in silent appreciation

Bare feet welcome
Dew’s cool chill
Refreshed peaceful
Lifting heart and mind

From heaven above
Comes… dew’s touch
