Awake! Awake! br I heard the call, br So far away my memory crawled br Along the dark and lonely pit br To see what I could make of it. br br The light came rustling in the room. br I realized it was almost noon; br I had been asleep so long, br it seemed........ br As if my life had been redeemed. br br I had closed my eyes for just a bit, br And I, but, thought I would dug a pit. br It was just a dream; br a nightmare sure br Where nothing really did occur.
