New Ways And New Days
Seems like lately
My life has been
Taking all kinds of
Twists and turns
Every day gives me
New ideas new thoughts
New ways of
Doing old things
My other life
My other ways
Were mostly good
They weren't bad ways
But they aren't
The way I want
To live my life
Today
Somewhere along
The line
Something changed
I changed
I think new thoughts
Have new ideas
Try new things
Meet new people
All this gives me
Strength hope
Happiness peace
All this is good
It doesn't mean
That every day
Is perfect
Far from it
Some days I feel
Like the bottom
Of a nasty old well
Wondering how I got there
But I just pull myself
Out of that muck
Shake myself off
And go on my way
So I can find
What life has
To bring me
What it will give me
New days and new ways

Yes I can relate to that, I think you have pulled some of these words right out of my head in fact. I usually wait until I've woken up in the morning to decide what I am going to do, because if I decided the night before and then didn't wake up in the morning that would be a wasted thought.lol. I have all the words, I just can't put them in the right order. Excellent prose Marilyn and the picture is beautiful, is it in your gallery?? I must check. Bravo!!!!!

Life is like a bowl of cherries...et al. It constantly opens up new perspectives on old things. Thanks for sharing these words with all of us.

In contrast to your varied daily experiences, Marilyn, every day is Groundhog Day with me. Fine sun splashed photo there, young lady!

Oh, this is a fantastic bit of writing, with a compelling image to accompany it. I can identify so well with this. New days...new ways...both of those things keep our souls alive. As the character, Duke Leto Atreides said in the David Lynch version of the film Dune, "Without change, something sleeps within us, and seldom awakens. The sleeper must awaken." It's nice to hear a real-life play on that line, because change always shows us what our "new" lives can be like, and each and every day seems to be a new life because of that. You've captured that, and I love it.

You need to write your poetry in a book for all to share. It is beautiful.
