What will this new day bring?

Will I laugh?  Will I sing?

Will I cry bitter tears…

Bitter tears of longing?

~~~

Will I dwell on things lost?

If so, what will it cost?

Opportunity missed…

Bridges burned, and not crossed?

~~~

Will I great treasures find?

The everlasting kind?

Although troubles may come…

Will I renew my mind?

~~~

This day brings what I give

What I pass through the sieve

Not what happens to me…

But how I choose to live.
