A New Page
The old page has been crammed, used up and torn
Its million pieces scattered, tossed out in the wind
Each beautiful memory reserved; errors, I rescind
Not worthy of preservation, keenly I did burn
Memories of a few special ones who conferred love
With stunning new “songs” enriching my life
They live in me, as they were sent from above
Forever in my heart until the end of all strife!
A new page lies open, crisp, and fresh as morning dew!
Like a child, I am curious of what will be written today
That is so deliberate, unfair, and that would not do
For I trust my Maker; whose gifts require no defray
And I’ve made no new resolutions, no promises I can not keep
Instead, will try living each day in the spirit; a higher place
To praise, love, laugh, dance; yes, cry, when paths turn steep
Strive to be joyful not by my will; surely by divine grace
