WITHOUT WARNING

 

In early dawn – before light,

   This is my quiet time

A time to reflect on last night,

   And to find what’s on my mind,

      The beauty of morning!

      Oh! The beauty of morning!

 

Sadness in my spirit, but why?

   An uncertainty that fills the air,

Words won’t come – I just sigh –

   (Find the truth if you dare!)

And then it’s this that I know:

      Early dawn – before morning!

      Reality comes without warning!
