Sunrise sunset, sunrise sunset,
Swiftly fly the days,
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers,
Blossom even as they gaze.
Sunrise sunset, sunrise sunset,
Swiftly fly the years,
One season following another,
Laden with happiness and tears.

I awoke this morning to a beautiful sunrise! Sunrises always fill me with such wonder and awe. And when I see one it gives me such hope.
~~~~~~~
Sun begins to glow
So early in the morning
It lifts up the soul
Happiness and joy
From the Creator's palate
Offer quiet morn
~~~^j^~~~
Thanks to be God,
Cathy

One of my all-time favorite songs, Cathy! Wow, did that ever take me back! And your haiku lifts my soul and fills my heart with praise for the glory of a new day in that special quiet! I'm glad I could share my columbine with you!
ReplyDeleteWaking up to a beautiful sunrise can gladden the day! Beautiful photo
ReplyDeletethe most profound and gorgeous sunrise i have ever witnessed was the predawn morning my father left his earthly body. my father's last gift -the gift of acceptance, peace, and grace. xo
ReplyDeleteI agree with Lea - I had to re-read the song a couple of times to make sure I was remembering the correct song - bright memories to go with a bright sun!
ReplyDeleteAmen!!
ReplyDeleteLuv your haiku
Happy Earth day
Much🌼love
