Analysis of Morning Thoughts of Love
Zealous Frank 2000 (Nigeria)
Before the sun is up
And the moon is out
Before I wake from sleep
And arise from my bed
Before I read my Bible
And take my coffee
Before I take my bath
And prepare for work
Before I eat my breakfast
And leave the comfort of my home
I must have first experienced a yesterday
Filled with loving memories of you
And must have anticipated a tomorrow
Filled with many loving things to do with you.
