From darkness births new light
to cleanse a trenched perspective.
Change had nested, but now
sprouts wings to fly!
To teach this bitter end to
soar triumphant.
Propelled by life; by dreams,
reach heights dared not dreamt of,
and formed beneath you
by the arms that care,
will be comfort and welcome
when you choose to land.
Life clears the black-wash
to shine tender emphasis
on beauty; on love.
To make little of that which seems huge –
perspective through a cloud
of worry.
Stand tall here, in gardens
misted with fresh dew.
Bear confidence of self to
dance with spirited wings!
On this dawn, achieve those dreams
which keep you warm when it’s cold.

this speaks very loud of optimism which is nice to read in poetry from time to time. I sometimes forget to see these things in my own life so it is nice to be reminded that it does exist lol.
