Has Anybody Else Questioned the Dawn
Has anybody else questioned the dawn
and wished, for once, the sun would hide its face?
In reverence for all those who have gone
somehow, the lack of cloud seems out of place.
The wind has dropped and warmth is all around
so early on this tragic, mournful morn.
What solace in this sunlight can be found?
Has anybody else questioned the dawn?
The speculation starts the usual way.
The questions growing louder by the hour
as people grope for something kind to say,
some words of hope to sap that day's dark power.
Has anybody else questioned the dawn,
and wished for once that yesterday was gone
(Written on the day of the Cumbrian Shootings in 2010)
