DAYBREAK.
We behold the bright joys of another day’s dawn,As time swiftly flies “like a bird on the wing;”Let’s improve every moment, now, ere it has gone,For no one can tell what the next one may bring.Our hopes of the future we never may see;Our days that are past we can never redeem;But to-day every heart, love and joy may impart,Which surpasses the sun’s most radiant beam.
