The Night Before Dawn Poem by HAKAM ABUBAKAR

The Night Before Dawn



The day has ended
The sun gives way to the night
Soon the sky will be free
Of flocking birds
Workers trod home
After long hours of toil
The laughter and cries
The day has brought
Shall be quiet memories
The silence of this night
Breeds untold thoughts
In my befuddled mind
Dare I wait for the morrow
Ignorant of what it holds
If death be merciful to me
While being carried by sleep
My ears shall be free
Of the sounding echoes of today
While the dawn awaits
To apprise me of new experiences.
