Dawn Trial Denial Collaboration
DAWN TRIAL DENIAL
I felt the warmth of sun it rose up early
The world was bright and young but that was then
Felt full of pep, perceived no aspect surly
Sensed: This is now, shall be! time and again
These changes I now feel oh! How I hate them
When early mornings tear my peace asunder
Unreasonable it seems; what is the stem?
Such unyieldingly demanding stillness plunder
But I did love them then those golden dawns
As though in Eden; seems so long ago
Yet now they‘re ruthless and Exile is born
Should I assert I just can’t do them so?
Admit I’m past my prime? Set for next phase
Or wake, walk once more on these fields of praise.
