a new SUNRISE

A new day is here…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At the coming of a new sunrise

I will open up my azure eyes

And breathe in frosted air

That moves about so fresh and fair...

 

New light will flood my fragile mind

And boundless treasures I will find

Content with this no more

To be sealed inside my iron door...

 

Life is full of secret streams

That flow and feed our hungry dreams

To love will be my end

And living fierce for all my friends...

 

Those things the world has thrown at me

Will shatter weakly at my feet

And in the golden dawn

I’ll seize all hope and carry on...

 

Author's Note

I truly hope this is a fresh, new day for you as well...

This is simple, yet full of meaning. I absolutely love the tone of this poem dearly. I wish I could pick a favorite line, but I cannot! Nicely written.

Wow what a wonderful way to convey the beauty of a new start in life, seeing the world in a brighter shine, in a clearer wake.

It's a controlling idea that's been passed around between poets because where there is darkness, light appears, and it's just grand and fresh, and- anyways, I must say I love the diction yet again because it fits. Whether your eyes are azure or not, that color just fits as well because it's a color of dreams, of realization. And then "frosted air" gives me the impression, the hint of a winter, a lifeless season.

On the second stanza, do you mean that the darkness will be no more, or in this new wake, no more going behind the iron door. I'm not sure I understand that.

And then the last two stanzas express the will to seize the day and conquer the obstacles in one's lifely path. Beauitful concept and careful words. Loved it a lot. Have a grand fresh day.
