Before the New Life
reaching backwards towards the past -
you must end one chapter
before you can begin the next
the butterfly must shed the caterpillar’s skin
before it can fly
the sun must set
before it can rise again
the night must end
before the day begins
the fear must leave
before potential can enter
the seed must grow
before the blooms appear
you must leave the past behind
before you can embrace the future
& I, like the sunshine, must move on
take a step forwards
before the new life can begin
New Life, New Day is a collection of 35 poems about celebrating life & the possibilities each day holds.
