The Rooster of Dawn
Ren always wondered
And wondered
And wondered;
Was he crazy?
He was consulting
Each and every one of his life's
Many hard troublesome problems…
To a rooster.
Should he check a doctor?
Why a rooster?
But then again,
The rooster felt…
Safe…?
It felt nice and warm…
Like that girl's bright sunny smiles
And her calming presence
That always soothed his soul
On his many bad days.
The rooster felt like dawn;
It disperse all the evil
And bad thoughts in his head.
It woke him up
With a powerful, heartfelt cry
To how beautiful the world could be
Despite the many bad things
That had occurred.
The rooster was bright!
It conquered the sun—
No, it was his sun…
Ah.
He smiled as he realized,
Realized why the rooster was so beautiful
And why its presence was so gentle
And why he felt so natural,
So perfect around it.
Was he crazy?
He should have known;
He should have realized
Since they first met.
He turned to Bo;
The brilliant bird gazed back.
"I have a problem, Bo—
No…
I have a problem, Kyoko,
I love you."
