A song that summons a new beginning
Pouring from the breast of a rooster
Strutting to and fro, he boasts
Announcing proudly the abandonment of slumber

Crack of dawn appearing in the sky
Setting off this unruly tirade
His spirit awoken by each breath of light
Setting a chain reaction across a crowded path

Progress now in motion, he retreats
A kingdom alive and in chaos
Feeding on success and desperate for refreshment
Settling into routine and delicate calmness

Subtlety, an attribute he does not possess
Unruly at best with unstoppable dogged determination
Lifting warm covers off a brand new day
Returning humbly to his waiting harem
