Andrew Yates Poet Sonnet

With the Dawn, New Light

This past eve lent my eyes such fright
For perception is reality and dreams come true 
And by this, I did long for much expedient light 
As the eve carried on, so my fear surely grew

But upon that this dawning
A young light appears in the distance
And so I ponder, resting under a sturdy awning
How it was that this light appeared with such little persistence

And there I was, remaining in the shade
As the sun surely rose
Bringing forth a new day
‘Twas such an admonition that I not explore past woes

For the past is but history, from which one can learn
 But tomorrow is of mystery, for this do I yearn
