I love the early mornings
And the dew
That transforms ordinary leaves
Into something extraordinary —
Into a bejewelled world
Of dancing rainbows,
Reminding me of one of my favourite quotations:
Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf. — Tagore
For more enchantment, please visit: Our World Tuesday.
