I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning. - J. B. Priestley After the sun rises, gentling the morning, Beautiful light in the sky, hope is dawning. Captive of the joy, such peaceful wonder, Destined to breathe feelings who believe. Endless pieces of sunrise rests on the hills, Fading beneath the skies in sensitive azure. Glorious sight promising the heart a psalm. Hastening to kindle faith, fealty is the way. Inspirations welcome the soul to shine, Just when I thought I’d lost, I knew I’d prevailed. Keep the door open to your heart, always, Listen to the breathless promise of lasting love. Maybe it comes at dawn, maybe at twilight. Never give up on the faith that reassures you. Open your heart to the love that kindles a flame, Praying for the dawn’s sweet touch, a distant grace. Quiet your fears with the surety that love will win. Right every wrong with kindness’ tender pining. Serenity comes to the soul who knows the dawn, Tempts the spirit, warming the heart with empathy. Understand that this life will sometimes bring pain. Valuable lessons are learned when the heart breaks. Wherever you go, remember that love is the answer. Xray your reasons and know, in all seasons, morning comes. Yesterday has gone, so don’t stay in the past. Zany as life can be, each new morning you’ll have a second chance!
