Dryden Shorts: SunRise

It marks the end of darkness. It sets the start of light.

It says a new morn begins. It says the end of the night.

Its rays suggest great insight. Its beams dry out the dew

Its progress defeats the staid. Its growth embraces the new

And right before your eyes – sunrise

We follow as it urges, we get up and get on with life

We choose the steps before us, needing wisdom for peace not strife

So right before our eyes, Son, Rise

For His Name’s Sake

Shalom

C. L. J. Dryden
