What I liked ...
This is a wonderfully positive poem, and it made me smile as I read it. The mystery and possibilities that each new dawn brings is such a great message. I love how your narrator reminds us how special each fresh morning is, and that we should cherish them. Your final line is perfect: "A world of possibilities, one of a kind." That sums up the message for the whole poem.
In the most part, there is a wonderful rhythm. Your aabb, ccdd, etc. rhyme scheme adds to the flow of the words, making them seem fluid and easy. There are a few places where the rhythm is a little off, but I will come to those under the Suggestions heading.
The imagery you use is a joy to read. The way you compare a new dawn, and the new life it brings, to life in general really appeals to me. These lines in the sixth verse highlight what I am talking about: "But a gateway to realms unseen, / Where each dawn brings a chance to thrive."
Suggestions: I have a few suggestions for making the rhythm a little more even. I have put them in a dropnote, so you can read them as you wish. Rhythmic Suggestions▼
"If a few words suffice to make it bright" - I think this is maybe the stresses in the first couple of words, rather than the number of syllables. "But mornings offer more, much more indeed" - I would take out "much more" so that it reads, "offer more indeed." "They signify a fresh start, a new chance" - To make this sound more poetic, I would change it to, "They signify fresh start, new chance." This would fix the rhythm, too. "To embrace the day, to truly come alive." - The rhythm is a little uneven here. I would change it to, "To embrace the day, truly come alive."
The other place I would look at is the second verse, where you rhyme "call" with "call." This stood out to me, and I might try to find an alternative word for one of them.
Parting comments: This is a great poem. It really makes me feel good when I read it. This great mystery of every new dawn, of the possibilities each one brings. Fantastic!
