It's a Brand New Day

let it be wonderful

It’s a Brand New Day

 

It’s a brand new day

Never been touched

How to spread some love

For those who don’t get enough

With a bright loving smile

For those who are so “tough”

A simple word of kindness

Can mean so very much

 

It’s a brand new day

How should it be used

Help someone who’s fallen

Lift their hearts from blues

Sing a song for happiness

For all the sad make new

Take a moment to FEEL a prayer

Make it the color and hue

 

It’s a brand new day

You want the sun to shine

Normally when you catch it

It makes your eyes go blind

Its power and its warmth

Help nature grow so kind

Follow its light

And “HOME” you will find

 

IT’S A BRAND NEW DAY…IT’S YOURS IF YOU CATCH IT...IT'S YOURS WHEN YOU LOVE!

Strong and hopeful words.
"Do you want more abuse
Or have you had enough
Heart wants it all to end
Mind says, “too tough”
The poem had a sad tone and some hope in the words too. Made me want to know more. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Very nice piece of work!
I read this to my cousin and family and we all agree that
this is uplifting and beautiful, we think this could be converted
to lyrics for a song:) Thanks for sharing and b-blessed!
