The Morning

By Jordan Kwong

The sun ascends, bright on a new day,

Yet some aren’t happy, they sleep away.

But those who rise before the dawn,

Know in their hearts they can’t be wrong.

For in a world where all must fight,

The slow will fall, lost from sight.

And those who stay and hesitate,

Will find themselves taken by fate.
