Early dawn's curtain, <br />Drawn to reveal rain showers, <br />And a pertinent absence of birdsong; <br />The hum of a motor engine; <br />The coolness of this morning, <br />Is quickly snatched away, <br />As the rain subsides; <br />Bird songs; <br />Kiskadee, kiskadee, kiskadee, <br />And sunlight floods the morning; <br />Curtain call. <br /> <br />(2010)<br /><br />Gillena Cox<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/curtain-call-13/
