Today is a new start,
hold the wheel and steer,
pieces play their parts,
fate dances so near.
Today is a new start,
grab it by the horn,
yesterday departs,
bright futures are born.
Today is a new start,
hopes rise with the sun,
past lessons feel smart,
learn to have some fun.
Today is a new start,
decide to wear smiles,
touch unhappy hearts,
joy can spread for miles.
Today is a new start,
“what will be” flows near,
to mark a restart,
future leader is here.
Today is a new start,
same goes for tonight,
life is a blank chart,
designed for delight.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
