  • got scared.....tried to log in from my facebook and it didn't work! I thought the sight had gone down and all my poems were lost! SO GLAD original poetry.com is still up and strong!!

A New Day

The sun rises
and it's funny how it seems
to laugh at me for yesterday's mistakes
Yet, somehow
I can not seem to take offense
Maybe it's because it
seems so sincere that
I feel, I too, should laugh
Maybe it's because it's
warm breath entices me
or its' bright light reveals
the true me that knows that
I really shouldn't take myself
all that seriously in the scheme of things

So, a smile peeks out
like the sun
not hiding behind any clouds or dispair
A new day has begun
with a smiling new sun
Reminding me
that some other light
has already reached out
to light for me the paths
that I should choose

Thanks, Eric! It's always better in the morning!

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
