All In A Day Poem by Liddy Luu

A glimpse of perfection in every way

Watching the sun rising on a new day

A morning unsullied, untouched, unabused

A new leaf in a book, opening up to be used

A clean empty page waiting, yet to be read

What will be written? , what will be said?

Will it start with a roar and wind down to a slow?

To whom will it honour, and where will it go?

Will it rise like the Phoenix, then fall back to ashes..?

Dropping like tears through dark, sooty lashes

Will all of the facets of living march through?

Showing lives filled with everyday nothing to do

Will hopeful and hopeless keep hanging around?

Both looking for something not easily found

Mothers give birth…an old soul flies away

What else might happen, could happen today?
