These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Tri-Fall: "Finding a New Day's Dawn"

Finding a new day's dawn,
chapter closed,
and something new must fill its place.
Foundation to step on,
question posed,
"Do you need fame, or living grace?"

The past is gone. Now's new.
This fog clouds.
Each reason's gone for all I did.
Life remains. It's not through.
Lift the shroud
to find the prize, and place the bid.

Parenting: gift to prize
She's new grown.
Life for me is open, wide, vast.
Time for hope to arise.
Seeds are sown.
Harvest time for seeds of the past.
