Today there is tomorrow

At dawn there’s hope, in light and in thoughts lit by it;
a beam of possibilities, a new stream of energy,
takes me higher in mind, leaves me refreshed,
for another day I am alive, for another day I need to live.

Thinking of work, optimistic, I do set out,
for events that defy time, and experiences that define it;
Looking forward, marching ahead, some plans I make,
to go places, to do things I never have, but believed I will.

Not every day we win; this fact I know too well,
and never to stop trying is still my way to go;
could miss an opportunity, could meet no aim,
but today there is tomorrow, yet to come.
