Onward, To Tomorrow

Seasons change and the day beckons

The phases of life begin anew

The universe calls to your spirit

“Join me in this renewed journey”

Of wondrous adventures,

Of twists and turns,

And the ups and downs bound to come

So close your eyes, take a deep breath, and jump in

The deep sea of your thoughts

Open up to the idea of pushing yourself

Further than you ever thought before

Do what you can, while you can

Because you never know when you can’t

If you never try

With every day that goes by

There’s another chance

And we can say to yesterday’s past, “Bye, bye”

Tomorrow begins with a new hello

And with it, a trek to the unknown

With experience and intuition, my sword

That will open many new doors
