The Sunrise Message

Hidden flames dancing wildly,

Flickering through the night.

Burning brightly till the morning,

Lighting their surroundings

For the work you must do.

Using the light,

You spread your voice

To a world too busy to listen.

They'll get the message

When they look up above.

As it burns brightly,

The skies fill with light.

Your task is almost complete.

The wind blows in,

Finishing your work

As the flame dies down.

As the people wake up

From their refreshing slumber,

They see your message

Blazoned across the sky,

But can only wonder

What it means.
