1/1/12
The hour chimes and so a brand new day,
Will shine upon us in the dawn's pale light,
What may await us next we dare not say,
Great blessings and success or bitter fight?
The world to which we wake,we cannot know,
Once, on this hallowed night, we close our eyes,
Their lids, dream leaden veils, shall lift to show,
A life of but one constant- pure surprise.
Yet, one prediction we may take as fact,
Despite what comes, great joy or misery,
Whatever life delivers, we will act,
With perseverance, love, and bravery.
Written by: Larry Sansone. In order to hone my writing skills (and for my own silly amusement) I am launching the O.C.P. Project: one poem per day for one year. I started the project on Jan.1, 2011 and completed the last poem on Jan. 1, 2012. Poems will be posted daily, whenever possible.
