  • 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 either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
