Did you breathe the Dawn?
What’s in the dawn?
Birds must be chirping.
Cool breeze must be biting.
Wet thyme must be tingling.
And I am smiling.
What’s in the dawn?
Is it raining?
Is it thundering?
Is it freezing?
I am sending a prayer
To the sick, the ill, the suffering from cold and hunger;
To the many at the end of their rope
Curtain drawn
What’s in the dawn?
I am breathing fresh life.
In a couple of hours nature dies:
The drama of the day begins
I can’t get used to that drama.
I want my dawn
Any day of the year.
Note: During this Covid-19 pandemics confinement I had to change many of my daily routine tasks and schedule. I started waking up early and take a one-hour morning walk at 5:30 am. I discovered that the chirping of birds can deafen me. It was like walking through a long tunnel, the singing of birds coming from every inch of the tunnel.
The were many periods in Lebanon that we could no longer hear birds, due to civil war, the frequent pre-emptive wars of Israel on Lebanon, or the extensive hunting of the Lebanese (just for fun).
I am glad that Corona showed me new discoveries and opportunity to change my life-style.
