ANOTHER SUMMER DAY by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS

First Line: A DEWDROP SPARKLED IN THE SUN
Last Line: ANOTHER SUMMER DAY.
Subject(s): HAPPINESS; HEAT; SEASONS; SUMMER; SUN; JOY; DELIGHT;
A dewdrop sparkled in the sun
Reflecting morning light,
The sun's rays shed a genial warmth,
Gone was the chill of night;
In perfect purity it hung
Upon a lovely flower,
It felt the joy of life and love
And lingered for an hour.

And with the passing of the day,
Where bursting buds surround
The petals from the lovely flower
Lay scattered on the ground;
The birds sang sweetly in the trees,
The sun moved on its way
'Til in a burst of glory passed
Another summer day.
