Nothing New Poem by Mary Champion

1987

There is nothing new under the sun,
but a fresh light falls on it everyday.
There is just one goal for everyone
but we all come home a different way.
There is nothing new under the sun,
but a fresh light falls on it endlessly.
There is just one Truth for everyone,
but as many views as there's eyes to see.

There is nothing new, there is no unknown.
There is me and you, and we stand alone.
And our heart could tell, if our minds could hear
where we have to look to make life come clear.

We have known the Truth since our time began,
when the ancients said, the Goddess made Man.
For they heard it all, just as She had planned.
but what they just heard, we could understand.

There is nothing new under the sun,
but a fresh light falls on it every day.
There is just one goal for everyone,
but we all come home a different way.

There is nothing new under the sun,
but a star must fade when its time is through
and if we can rise when its day is done,
there'll be more new dreams we can make come true.
