morning sunshine

Daybreak's warm light

Morning sunshine is the sunlight that arrives in the early hours of the day, often valued for its gentle, golden quality: Morning sunshine streamed through the kitchen window.

The phrase also serves as an affectionate greeting to someone who has just woken up: Good morning, sunshine!
