Why is there no article before "morning" in the sentence, "Morning came."?

Hello, I have been taught that a noun whose meaning is not abstract needs an article to be placed in front of it.

So I thought the sentence "Morning came." should be modified into
"A morning came." or "The next morning came." so forth.

But the sentence "Morning came." is from a fairy tale book, so there could be no way it is wrong.
