The sun shines bright up in the sky, Clouds float by, so fluffy and high. Birds chirp sweetly, in the trees, A gentle breeze whispers secrets to the leaves.

In the evening, the stars appear, Like tiny diamonds, shining clear. The moon glows softly, casting light, Creating shadows in the night.

But with the dawn, the darkness fades, The sun returns, in golden braids. A brand new day, a fresh start, Filling the world with warmth and heart.
