With every dusk there comes a night
and every morning brings the light.
Each morning risen brings life new
a chance to thine own self be true.

For each one of us there is a plan,
trials to test every woman and man.
With faith and hope we make it through;
a chance to thine own self be true.

So rise with courage each new day
and face your trials along the way,
each day there is a coming of new
a chance to thine own self be true.

On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free.

Sunshine, Melton, thank you both very much.
This poem was interesting for me to write, it was a new form I had never tried before.
Again, Thank you!

Well done GS. . . indeed if we are not true to ourselves. . . we cannot be true to others. . .

Superb. . .
