Like Starting All Over Again

Morning, afternoon, evening
New challenges, new light, new drive
That deep breath, like starting all over again
The calming count from one to ten
The simple things are not taken for granted
Like a June morning
It's a new day

By myself
The first cup of coffee of the day
No passersby, not yet
No sign of the second day of the heat wave, not yet
The creatures are still and happy
Each weed has disappeared and there is room
The new blooms are almost in season
The soothing dawn breeze
That deep breath, like starting all over again
The calming count from one to ten
Like a June morning
It's a new day

Morning, afternoon, evening
Like the first cup of coffee
Like the still creature
Like the breeze
Like the calm
Like the morning
It has to pass
The day's obstacles are not like the morning bliss
or like starting all over again
So, time let me breathe more deeply
Counting from one to ten
So the simple things are not taken for granted
Like a June morning
It'll be a new day
