Every Morning

Every morning is a new day.
Some days begin like a happy dance,
with sunlight streaming in my window,
to kiss my face good morning.
Some days begin like a sorrowful storm,
with gray clouds creeping in,
to say "just stay in bed."

Every morning is a new day,
a chance to begin.
Some begin with happy song,
bright birds singing,
their morning praises.
Some begin on a sadder note,
discordant buzz of alarm clock,
met by dreary drizzle.

Every morning is a new day,
a chance to begin,
to live in the moment.
The smell of coffee brewing,
promises a family day,
but ordinary smells,
herald in a work day.

Every morning is a new day,
a chance to begin,
to live in the moment,
a chance to sing,
whatever song you're given,
a chance to connect,
with the world a new.

Be with me each new day.
