Analysis of When the Morning Meets Your Eyes



AS MORNING BREAKS OVER THE MOUNTAIN,
THE NIGHT IS CHASED AWAY,
BEAUTY MOVES OVER THE VALLEY,
BY THE BIRTH OF A NEW DAY.
THE FLOWERS BEGIN TO BLOOM,
AND THE BIRDS AGAIN TAKE TO FLIGHT,
WHILE THE NIGHTS COOL BREEZE
BEGINS TO WARM IN THE SUNS MORNING LIGHT.
ALTHOUGH THE MORNING IS BRIEF,
IT'S MEMORY CAN LAST FOREVER,
A NEW CHILD IS BORN, A COUPLE WEDS,
OR AN OLD MANS FINAL ENDEAVOR.
WHEN NIGHT FALLS,
AND THE SUNSET SLOWLY DIES,
REFLECT ON THE FEELINGS YOU FELT,
WHEN THE MORNING MET YOUR EYES.
