Is today a new beginning?

Question

New Beginning

Awake, awake, arise, arise.

Open my mind, open my eyes.

It's way past dawn, there's much to say,

Who will I choose to be this day.

A sailing master, brave and true,

Sailing the horn with expert crew?

A fighter pilot in the sky?

A baker making apple pie?

You see I can be who I please,

For with my pen I tell and tease.

I'll make up something new to say,

And show it to the world today.

For now I think I'll just be me,

A poet is what I will be.

I'll write a rhyme just for the fun,

I'll kiss the girls to watch them run.

Some run out and some run in,

Either way it makes me grin.

Tomorrow, who knows what I'll be,

I guess we'll wait till then to see.
