    Shadows of the dawn

    Shadows of the dawn.
    Hide the things that are wrong.
    Like an old song I hear voice again.

    The brisk wind hits my face.
    A memory of you my mind embraces.

    The snowflakes my only friends.
    My head goes down as tears start to flow from my cheek.
    Thinking about what I should have, could have, would have done differently now.

    Too late the only thing I hear, the wind howling and growling that phrase in my ear.
    Them words my mind repeats so gently reminding me that those words are my fate.

    My mind wonders as I stand in the cold.
    The hail pelts my body with all the regret I feel.

    The realness of the world starts to numb my brain.
    I slowly start to get tired and lay in the snow.
    My body gets overwhelmed by the cold.
    I'm forever lost in the untold world of white.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
