Today I found the sun's warmth
Tickling my neck,
A summer breeze
Kissing my cheek,
Waking me up to another chance.

Today I found a robin's sweet melody in my ear
It's harmony soothing my soul
Another chance at life, at love.

Today I found the earth's rich clay
Around and beneath and between my toes
Hugging me
But not hurting me
Caressing me
Not cornering me
Another chance at growth, at freedom.

How grateful am I!
How joyful my smile!
How peaceful, how calm, my spirit.
I remember briefly
The thunder and pain
But today is another chance.
