Waiting for Dawn

Waiting for Dawn
March 2, 2004

You know those silent moments,
In the silent rooms,
In the silent house?
The ones where the only noises,
Are the faint breaths of your family,
Laying in bed dreaming?
The moments of darkness,
Just before light?
You know when the sun isn't showing,
Yet the sky is glowing,
Just before that great ball of fire,
Creeps over the hillside to welcome the morning?
Dawn.
You remember those moments when the only sound,
Was the occasional chirp of a beautiful hidden bird?
And you don't know where,
And you don't know why,
But the best idea is to simply cry?
For the silence and the dark,
Is the best place to embark,
The greatest feeling you can feel,
Love.
Love for the lands and the birds and the sight,
Love for the flowers that open at the light.
Remember the moments you smiled at the doe and her fawn,
Remember the moments you were waiting for dawn?
