Patiently awaited dawning light,
Give pause and ease the end of night.
Revealing treasure darkness closed,
Dew dropped morning rain imposed.
Brighter still you reach your peak
Shadows old your eyes do seek.
Climb within the corners now
Force light inside, show us how.
If ever sought your praise in past
Show you now, the spell is cast.
Rise and cease the nightime air
Daytime breezes, with it scare.
If never once we loved in you
Dance us now in purity true.
Slake our thirst for light's glare,
For later night again ensnares.

Thanks, Kit! You're up early too, eh?
Right about now my stomache is rebelling against sleep.
