Goodbye Yesterday

It’s strange how yesterday felt 

like a boat-ride that never stops
like walking in an alley of flowers.

But yesterday is gone and the boat-ride

has come to a stop at where my dreams begin.
It’s time to step into my next adventure.

I’ve got to be brave and brace myself
for there is more in store for my soul

and I have in store smiles for the life I’ll live.

Beginnings can be daunting
because it means saying goodbye

to a life you've lived and loved,

But from tomorrow I’ve got to resolve,
to turn my dreams into a sky full of stars,
and my heart a field of wildflowers.
