Blank Slate
Tabula rasa, pristine way
To start afresh each nascent day;
Turn your back on toils and troubles,
Spurn old struggles, burst their bubbles,
Cast off shackles, unfurl your wings,
Free the puppet, cut off all strings,
Lighten the load, write off the weight,
Embrace each dawn with a blank slate.
