THE MARK
I sat out at the bistro in the pre-dawn
Sipping on some coffee looking out at the lawn
The breeze was a cool and refreshing friend
Discussing with me the words that I penned
The fleeting night went gently on its way
With a grand introduction of the coming day
And all of the sudden meaning became clear
The preciousness of life felt amazingly near
There in those moments just before day break
At my tiny bistro just sipping in all the life I could take
A few moments of calm here in the dark
But the message was sent and it hit the mark
