Dawn Beckons



Half my life (or more) has passed.

Only God can tell.



I sit here in the midst of it and

ponder Heaven or Hell.



The mark on life, I hoped to make,

(I was a youthful fool),



Has lost its shine as years have passed.

I'm found here--still in school.



When now I've time to think on my

mistakes as well as goals,



I look again at what is left.

What yet for me unfolds?



I cannot dwell on hurtful past,

I dare not wait for dreams.



The landscape as I see it now,

a bronzed and sepia'd thing,



Could Sunset be or yet the best

that I have ever known.



I smile and meet it joyfully.

Dawn beckons and I come.
