A New Year, A New Day

A new day Comes every day With a morning, a noon An afternoon and an evening It's day and it's night Across the countryside. The first day of the year Is as special as the last Man creates days of feast To distinguish himself from the beast That says that all days are the same Like the wind that dances and sows. There is a beginning To smile and laugh And an end of time To cry and die The animals are right A new season does not matter. A new year, a new day A new week, a new month A new night, a new noon A new sun, a new moon.
