This is quite beautiful, and you've done a lovely job with the presentation too!

My only suggestion is in your final stanza, it's not as rhythmic as the first two.

I like the style you chose, as the refrain is like another day to be thankful for. Thank you for sharing.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This poem is so beautiful, so well written. How can I find anything to correct? It has been carefully written to express the beauty, the perfection of the dawning of a new, especially a summer's day. It deserves a place of honor...somewhere, but certainly not in a garden shed. A sunroom, perhaps, or ...where does one first greet the dawn?

    Thank you Serendipity. How about on a porch or deck?

    Thank you mumsyone. I use it in some, and not in others. Depends on the style of the poem.

Well done. The poem paints a wonderful picture of how a day can be. Reading this makes one look forward to the day coming in. You did very well on the style-rhymes beautifully where it is supposed to. If one reads this every morning, the day, at least, will start out right. I like it very much!

I think the flowers are slightly bigger than our harebells, very pretty with the tinges of dew. Lovely imagery and rhyming to convey your thoughts on an early spring morning. Faye

The precious gift of life. Mine has become a quest for healing for the hurt that has been inflicted on me. Yours is an observation. Different perspectives but the end is the same--peace--love with God. Well done, Tom.

A lovely image which complements the subject perfectly.
As I head towards winter any spring blessings make my heart happy.
Well written Quatrains which stay true to stated rhyme and meter.
Yes indeed, the refrain does add extra depth.

Author seems to be saying each new day that dawns is a gift and uses statements such as "each new day is a gift," "dawning day's rebirth," and more to illustrate his idea.
