A New Destiny

A New Destiny

Today is another day
To do whatever we do
In whatever form or way
That we choose to

Today is a workplace in which
We can occupy our time
A place in which we may stitch
Together images in our mind

Using the needle and thread of creativity
To build a tapestry over time
A quilt of new reality
Born in the workshop of the mind

Where on the workbench of dreams and visions
New projects of reality I may build
And over time, with wise decisions
A new destiny I can fulfill

H. Wilson

Amazing, so short and so full of wisdom ... great job!

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
