Awakened
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

               Awakened

Awakened by the sound of cheering
eyes opened to the sight.
Of fireworks flashing across the sky
lighting up the night.
The babe of brand new seconds
didn't see the old one pass.
But stories would someday remind
of time that never last.
And as a new day shone it's light
upon New Year's first day.
The hope that springs eternal
reached out to lead the way.
