A new sunrise and a new day and a promise. Now, this day is the time to let go, to just let go, Everything in my life is going to be wonderful; Weeping will wither away and courage will embrace me. Years, months, days of endless crying will end, Each glistening tear will fade away; An odd feeling swirls within me, a hope, Rest for my troubled soul, is what I promise me; Sorrow and grieving will be my yesterday. Past the mask of happiness that I wear each day, Reaching for the reasons why to live, to go on; O, the fragments of my life gather like storm clouds, Misty the pieces of my former life; I see new horizons and beautiful scenes to explore, Still my spirit wants to soar, I want to just let go; End of my forever grief, is my promise this new day. ____________________ January 1, 2016 Poetry/Acrostic/"A New Years Promise" Copyright Protected, ID 16-740-585-0 All Rights Reserved.
