First messenger of the day

I heard the cock crow three times by 3:33 am for the first time
For someone who hadn’t slept, I understood that only few heard the first cock-crow in a day
The rest of my world was fast sleep that dark morning for the satisfaction of early morning sleep
If I had slept I would never have heard the clear early morning crow, which sounded like a message.
I wondered if there were people who stayed awake to hear the first cock-crow message.
Is the cock one of nature’s timekeepers? I had asked myself that dark morning
Which announced a new day and revealed what the new day brought?
I wondered what Sunday brought.
I would certainly stay awake again to understand the message behind the first cock-crow
