Climbing the Heights

Now to the unexpected day ahead

Now to the unexpected day ahead
For all the moments that may be
What lies between now and then
We shall wait and see

The heart that beats slow
And begins to burn
Ah, what shall this day be like

The birds that chirp at morning break
Who welcome the dawn in song
And as each glimmer of light
Edges round the surface of the ground
A new morn doth come round

In stillness I wait
In solitude I contemplate
May my soul be content
Whatever however this day was meant

May joy always carry through
The dark, the deep, the despair
May it rise with the morning light
And shower over the day so bright

May all that is to be this day
Live and breathe
Of life

Hope beyond the heartache ahead
And persevere in patience instead
For all things whether good or ill
Have there place in thine devined will

-Joshua Lee Foist
