A bitter, numbing night
Of piercing winter frost,
Gives way to densest fog
At the first dawn light.
And what was frozen
Leaks into new life.
Icy whiteness drips
Onto iron-hard earth.
Diamonds of crystal light
Melt into essence, until
The new dawn wakes the world.
We should never despair.

As the day draws to a close
On a day full of stresses
And frustrations,
My mind is in turmoil.
Hard to end the day with such negativity.
But I look through the window
To the darkening sky
And crepuscular rays
Enlighten the darkness
And lead me to know
That there is enlightenment
And tomorrow can be different.
