"A New Day"

I say,

Arise bright sun.

Clear away.

Those last bits

Of darkness.

Morning brings us.

Its freshness.

A promise.

A new day.

A clean start.

Loosen those ties

Which bind us.

What we no longer

Want to hold

Can be released.

What is to us

Most precious.

Hold lightly, softly

As one ought hold

A small bird.

Too tight a grasp

Could injure.

While a gentle touch,

When the time comes,

Gives freedom for flight.

Until I type again,
Kami
