One More Day

I greet the new sunrise;

I rise on wings of fire -

the breaths of my life.

I am strength . . .

the source of hope.

In my journey of discovery,

we are the source;

yet, I stop to clean the toilets of life.

Change will come, for

together we are stronger.

One more day -

to correct a wrong,

to reason, to wonder, to question.

Answers will come . . .

When we hear my song.
