Sunrise . . .
The chance for a fresh start
The chance for a "do over"
The chance to challenge yourself
The chance to experience something new, even if it's scary
The chance to be a little better person than you were the day before
The chance to love and be loved
The chance to forgive
The chance to feel fortunate that you are seeing a new sunrise
Sunset . . .
The chance to reflect on the day and feel good about what you did do and not beat yourself up for
what you could have done . . . Because if we are lucky we always have another chance tomorrow

Beautiful photo and poem Lynn. I love the parallels you drew...a chance to start over, a chance to reflect, fortunate for a new sunrise, lucky to see another sunset tomorrow. Nice!
ReplyDeleteLynn, love the poem. Your sunsets are amazing. Being in the woods, we don't get the full effect of our sunsets. Such true words you have written. Your last line is so meaningful. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteWow -- that sunset matches the background on your blog (minus the ocean water!). Beautiful reflective poem -- from beginning to end!
ReplyDeleteLynn - your gift of words is amazing. I'm going to print this poem for Alli. She's having trouble realizing that each day is fresh. I know your words will help. XOXO
ReplyDeleteYour writing is a beautiful reminder that we all get another chance...tomorrow.
