Promised Gleams

 The sky wears a peachy shawl
 Gentle ushering in the dawn
 There is a promised gleam of light

 Into this new day both joy and sadness will come
 Chirping birds entertain with their melody
 Leaving a song in the heart

 Bring in new ideas to rearrange the status quo
 Infinite possibilities lie ahead
 Favoring those who will seize the day

Hmm, I guess we should look at each new day as possibilities.

A new day is a wake up call. The day gives a mixed bag of happiness and sorrow. Those who can seize the opportunities, each day offers is a winner in life. Beautiful thoughts in a well constructed poem dear Joseph.

Nearly all my friends come from the USA, and all I read is how cold it is. Well, spring will soon come, and with it, some warmth.

Chirping birds entertain with their melody. Wish I could hear them.

Carpe diem. I wonder if birds vary their melodies into joy or sorrow.
