The dawn breaks with excitement on his mind.
He collects his thoughts as two years have past.
His love for something as simple as a 4 piece quartet
has driven his heart, soul and body toward exhaustion.
Night turns into day as the fire continues to burn.
Will the night equate complete happiness?
The cold concrete is forgotten
as the seeming less future is foreseen.
Dates, pictures, hymns and stories are
thrown around as a stepping stone for discussion.
The group commences.
they begin there walk towards a song in the night
My heart rejoices with the rest.
The exhaustion secedes long enough
to feel success of a brighter day.
The ink still stands
as a reminder of better days spent
with the people I love.
