Daybreak
Light is dawning, yawning drowsily.
Mouse is skittering, chittering mousily.
Tree frog a-croaking, a-cloaking his infirmity.
Bullfrog is barking, marking his enormity.
I stand enchanted there.
Like a tree I’m planted there
observing nature, serving notice,
lacking stature, posture lotus,
taking in the morning lyrical, making much of the pondside miracle.

I love the flow of this. It has a whimsical feel that I like as well but I hate the word whimsical so I'll say waggish....I looked it up and it is indeed a simile to whimsical!
