Sunlight

Sunlight dances on the dew
And ignites the fruitful light;
Gloriously sang the essence
Of chlorophyll sustained—
Destined green that reaches forth
In every crinkle of a leaf.

It flickers on the air,
Filled with whispers and caresses,
Blurring the edges of sharpness,
Molten reflections sway and twist,
Where this living orb defies
The passages of time and breath.
