As the sun rises
There are new blooms
Blooms of morning glories
a reminder that although things
appear unchanged
Today they are older
more beautiful
much fuller
and wide open
Trees are that much closer to heaven
Than they were yesterday
Caterpillars are much closer
To becoming butterflies
Than ever before
So as I say hello to a new dawn
I embrace the change
Knowing that I am that much closer…
To where I need be
