Moments before dawn, dew appears on a leaf
Pure and sparkly, it dances like a thing;
Harsh wintry night, the creator of this wonder
Watches as it slides down under;
The clock freezes, with the dew in mid-swing
And night turns to day, bringing back promise and belief.
Birds sing to their heart's tune, partying in the wind
Butterflies are such a beauty; they need not do a thing
Bees buzz atop the flowers, working like it's the end
Cranes wait patiently, till they find fishes to befriend
The golden rays from the sky kiss each life form
All bathe in glory and riches, until there's a storm.
Dark clouds and chilly winds, the harbingers of night
Brings uncertainty and misery, to all creatures’ fright.
The lightning flashes up the eyes of its prey
All count silently, in hope for another day.
Some give up and leave before they get slain
But it's the brave who stayed, that enjoyed paradise once again.
The clock resumes, and the droplet falls to her feet
She watches her reflection, as a tear streams down her cheek;
The feeling was powerful, that got her overwhelmed with emotion
It drove her to disbelief, and to think it's only her own battle.
Sometimes it's good to cry, and let tears fall into motion
But remember it’s darkest before dawn, and the dawn is about to settle.
