A New Day
This is one of my favorites. I wrote this one while in the back of a car, traveling along a lake shore. It basically explains how I want my outlook on life to be, and my nickname.
A new day breaks
A child smiles
The golden sands
Stretch on for miles
A seabird cries
A maiden sings
An eagle soars
On heaven's wings
A hero's quest
True love newfound
A song is born
That needs no sound
A prison opened
A dream released
Another day
Has brought its peace
