Each New Day

I hear the alarms ring,

And wonder what the new day will bring.

It could bring coffee and school,

Or a new adventure that is really cool.

It could bring laughter or tears

It could bring your greatest fears.

It could take you off on an adventure,

Or make you feel great pleasure.

You might cry,

You might fly.

The day may make you happy,

It may make you sad.

Or somewhere in between,

and see a face that makes you glad.

It could bring a night by the fire,

Or a fun practice with the choir.

It could be a long day at work,

It could be when someone is a jerk.

It could be the day that ends your life,

It could be a day filled with strife.

It's well possible that you breathe your last,

It's well possible to be the day you get a cast.

Maybe today you watch a movie,

Or going out and getting something groovy.

Today could bring destruction,

Today could be full of instructions.

For each new day has something to do,

Now go out and enjoy it, will you?
