The Next New Dawn

It's just like the seasons to bring changes that we slowly prepare for
And, through each one we surely find our way
In our hearts we can hold many and still have room
As every new dawn should be an even brighter day...

I hope the next new dawn you'll clearly open your eyes
And, may you easily find strength in that sun
Take the peace that the rays gently lay upon you
And, simply give praise to what the night has just done...

Allow the sunrise to give you what I surely cannot
And, take in the light that shines for us all
Because a little bit of hope lives within each soul
And, may that sun be my hands if you should ever fall...

I hope the next new dawn sings the sweet melody of love
And, the rhythm becomes the same as your heart
For when the sunset has left you down on your knees
May the dawn bridge the distance that keep you and loved ones apart...

I pray the next new dawn finds you on top of the world
And, may it's light lend you happiness on high
It's not within my power to ever stop the rain
But, may that sun be my heart to dry your eyes...

I hope the next new dawn wakes you to always be your best
And, I sure hope that dawn has allowed you a long nights rest
For I simply cannot mend any broken promises ever made
But, if you should ever need me I'm only a day away...

Saun


Sauni :)
Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak
I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps

Because a little bit of hopes lies within each soul

There are days when the hope gets us by...there are days when it only makes us cry.  Very nice poem, your heart is true.

Saunni~

'simply give praise to what the night has just done...'

I can sense the significant feelings you wrapped up in this one~
Very nicely done.
