Another Day Another Chance

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NISkmC_4bNQ

We are graced with a gift and it is to be unwrapped, every morning 
as gentle as the peeling of the light when it falls upon the gloaming 
unravel the day like a present of love, boxed in the shape of a heart 
it is the promise of life that gives you, another day another chance;

Walk in the path of beauty gather the flowers you find on the way  
fill your arms with scented holdings and be brave come what may 
those tokens of affection are the presents of your daily romance 
they are the jewels that deduce, another day another chance 

Winds of change are coming and we need to stay afloat for now 
run towards the things that make you feel sane and sweet alive  
unravel the day like a present of love from the past and live,   
its the trinket of worth that bestows, another day another chance 

We are graced with the gift of today and so I hope you dance, 
I pray for you that you give life, another day , another chance.

So true my friend. Life is a gift that can only be given by one. The creator. If we don't treat it well we will lose it. God Bless, JB
