My Favorite Time of Day

In the Morning Just Before Dawn,
when the Sun is just Peeking over the Horizon,
the Sky is Brilliant Shades of Purple and Orange.
The Air is Cool and Fresh with new
Perspective and Possibilities .
The only sounds are the Birds Awakening and the
Desert Bunnies scurrying to their daytime Hideaways.
This is my Favorite time of Day.

In the Afternoon when the Sun is Full and Bright
The Heat Warms my Body and Connects it with my Soul.
My Children are Belligerent with Joy and Laughter.
The Glowing Sun Brightens their Cheeks and makes
Them Smell of Sweet Sweat and Earth.
My Prideful Heart Swells as I watch the Miracles
I have created Run and Play.
This is My Favorite time of Day.

At Night the Sun Slips away to Warm Someone else.
The Moon is Revealed and makes the Dew on
the Grass Sparkle like an Ocean of tiny Diamonds.
A Crisp Breeze Cools the Days Sun from my Skin.
Everyone is at Peaceful Rest except for
The Crickets who sing me their Nighttime Songs.
It is too Miraculous Not to say Thanks and Pray.
This is Truly my Favorite Time of Day.
