on a cold grey day
new life starts up
in promising ways
a hug passed here
joyful eyes offered there
t'would seem I live
by my cheeks so fair
these words I dig
and hand out to you
have found wings so light
and are now coming true
a writer, i dreamed
A Writer, I am
til my hours fill up
now true I stand
the words, they fill me
the words, feed too
my soul blossoms slowly
and sun's rays pour through
I will keep on working
hold the prose in my heart
pray life fills completely
with this promising start...
