Wind of change gently caresses
It feels different this time around
Optimistic with stubborn caution
Yet a step in the right direction
Is better than standing still
Feelings of hope reinvent
Maybe there is a way out
A new path emerges true
Sure to have obstacles
But prettier sunsets too
A smile replaces a frown
Dark clouds may linger
But I see the sun
Shining in my eyes
For the first time in years
A deep breath of fresh air
Clears my head and heart
It’s a new day, a new start
A new chapter to be written
I’ll see you on the other side.
A poem by Jason S. Sullivan, 09-16-20
