Do you hear the rooster crowing?

Listen, listen,
everyone,
do you hear
the rooster crowing?

The sun has pierced
the morning sky,
the din of waking birds
is growing.

No heavy eyes
or dragging feet
will change the hour
the clock is showing.

Listen, listen,
everyone,
do you hear
the rooster crowing?

Hi, my name is Jacob Anton (ANN-tin) Davis. I am a husband, father, attorney, and writer. I have written poetry and fiction as a hobby for the past 20 years, but I launched J. Anton Poetry in 2019 to share my writing publicly. The poems of mine on this site largely describe my thoughts about the deeper connections and meaning in our everyday lives.
