I stayed there until a ray of light appeared in the sky. At first, it was orange and red, but after a short while, the sun awoke（唤醒）from its sleep and painted the sky with its gold colour. The sunlight shone on everything—trees, roofs and streets.73I felt its warmth flow（流动）through my body and into my heart. The rays of light woke up the gentle（温和的）morning wind and sent it moving across the field, touching my face and everything gently. It also woke up the early birds, which were singing happily.
