On days like this, I am more thank you than apology. More welcome party than goodbye affair. On days like this, men can't shut my voice into a casket. No person can sift my heart into a dustpan. On days like this, my voice is gospelled choir a hopeful tune My heart refuses to unsing a joyous song. On days like this, I am phoenix brushing cinder off infant wings. I am honey to your honeysuckle. I am bowing apex off a tidal wave. I am fresh picked book opening up to new hands. On days like this, I am no ocean with finite shores. I am skyline. I am boundless beginning. I rewrite. I renew. I begin again.

On Days Like This
On days like this, I am more thank you than apology. More welcome party than goodbye affair. On days like this, men can't shut my voice into a casket. No person can sift my heart into a dustpan. On days like this, my voice is gospelled choir a hopeful tune My heart refuses to unsing a joyous song. On days like this, I am phoenix brushing cinder off infant wings. I am honey to your honeysuckle. I am bowing apex off a tidal wave. I am fresh picked book opening up to new hands. On days like this, I am no ocean with finite shores. I am skyline. I am boundless beginning. I rewrite. I renew. I begin again.
