The Coveted Dawn
The Coveted Dawn


Isn’t this the coveted dawn
That you longed for
Over those long summers
To live your remnant life afresh?
Look, your worries aren’t awake yet,
Troubles seem relishing their sadist dreams,
Sluggish vices are yet to bid the night bye -
As if sleep has numbed them all
Until your weak mind infuses
Into them fresh vigour again!
There, the vibrant glow on horizon
Preceding the Day’s King’s arrival
Brings in new hope
Clad in light and warmth;
And the soothing southern breeze
Whispers in your ears plain inspiration
Readying you to live like you must.
Dither no more, my friend,
Set sails forthwith,
At this opportune hour,
For, rewards that wait ahead
Oft come to the resilient few
Who never count their tumbles
Until they start anew and win.
