"Morning Dew" by Kyle Leighton
And so it is, a new day has dawned
As here I sit to greet it right
A pebble, nay, a grain of sand
In the depths of space on this land
Tomorrow brings what we not know
But care at all is nay we have
For sorrow comes to those who wait
Who lie awake and worry their fate
For now I see the sky so free
Tomorrow brings a day of glee
And Yani sits and pangs about
For he not knows what teams around
In this head of mine, teaming so loud
Thoughts that wash and whisper aloud
Like clouds they pass and sway around
For that may come is bound to slither
Tither, hither, the grass it's slender
Ready to show the day what's wetter
Than a morning dew and a sunshine shimmer
In the crystal depths of water drops hither

On no what a palaver
What an awful din
The barista is going crazy
As the customers all pile in
Mums with small children
Spotty teenagers with attitude
All sorts from all walks of life
Are waiting in the que
I shuffle slowly along the co...
