Bloom

Turn away from things that can’t be changed. Forgive the foolish slights. Mend the wounds.

Turn to the rising sun. Feel the warmth of the new day. Embrace it with a thankful heart.

Be the cause of joy. Be the source of possibility. Make life better for your having been here.

begin beginning
don’t dwell fallen petals past
nurture spring’s bright blooms
