Jmf4119,
Charming piece of poetry meeting the desired norms and beautifully depicting its positive theme!
Wording is simple as well as impressive.
Smooth and enchanting flow with lovely rhyming scheme and lively imagery.
"Each day begins a mystery
to solve before day turns to night.
If we obey the 'Golden Rule"
there's promise in the dawn's first light."
Superb!

Does not dawn personify renewal. Are we forever aware of this colorful reminder? At best we register mentally that our lives register the smoky reminder of our faith , belief, promise and other such vanities. When God has spelled it out for us in beautiful, earthly images that should tell us something. Our poet is handy with the images and the repetitive lines slip smoothly into place. What more could we ask for.

Love the repetitive, descending line. Every day is a fresh start and promises possibilities. A very tranquil poem that was a pleasure to read.

I like your poem for its simplicity, easy musical flow and the positive message it gives. The use of "golden rule'' with double meaning is wonderful. All the best.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this poem. Kudos for rhyming without using awkward words! (My pet peeve.) Although you repeated the line in each stanza, they flowed smoothly and I even looked back to see if they were there -- in other words, didn't sound repetitive. I loved it. Thanks for sharing!
