Edward Ibeh Poet Monchielle Stanza

Before the Dawn Grows Old

Before the dawn grows old,
 Let's meet in the gloaming
 And watch the setting sun;
   No time like the present.
Say yes, we'll have great fun!

 Before the dawn grows old,
    Hum along with me to
Sweet songs of nightingales,
    Or we could stay silent
    As they tweet fairytales.

 Before the dawn grows old,
    Let's create memories
    For dawn is aging fast;
    I ask for nothing more.
   May all our moments last!

 Before the dawn grows old,
  Wrap me in your embrace,
   Spend time at my abode
    Shower me with kisses;
      Another for the road!
