The Morning Dawn
I wake before the final strobes of the rising sun
 I walk about outside my bed 
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 The green ropes kiss my feet
 Their tears wash my feet, and cool them
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I wander towards the cliff, at the edge of the meadow
 I lean tenderly on the worn, wooden fence
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I look out over the lake as the sun wakes the world
 I am brushed by soft sprays of water
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I turn and look toward my hidden bed
 The souls around me began to stir
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I turn away from the refreshing water
 My back is licked by the soft touch of the breeze
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I walk towards my shadowed bed
 I quietly sit along the side
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I grow restless, waiting for these weary souls to wake
 I sift and stand upon the ropes once more
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I am pulled towards the beautiful waters
 I stand, looking over the edge
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I peer down at the cool waters
 I sit upon the ledge
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 The souls are finally waking
 The last rays of sun have rose
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I walk back to my cabin
 My cabin mates greet me
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
 
 I think about how I love this camp
 It is placed perfectly along the shores of Lake Erie
 My feet pitter-patter upon the sodden Earth
