Surprise is in the unexpected beauty
in what rises every day,
Light tinged with colour wakes my heart
along with my eyes,
A mounting list of drudgeries
waiting for me
As I think of what must be done,
Are forgotten in that moment
when my eyes turn toward the sun,
I love the surprise of beauty everyday,
It always renews and reminds,
New life is always waiting for its turn,
When I remember to open my heart,
To the life that rises in me each day.
