It's a brand new day
For new hopes,
New dreams,
New thoughts to pen,
New hopes to make life worth while;
New corners to turn
New smiles to smile.
Rise up
To greet this day,
Touch the hand of a friend
Along the way.
Let your laughter ring out loud,
Like the roar of thunder,
Then write a poem
To be tucked under
Someone's pillow
Tonight.

Dorothy (Alves) Holmes
