A NEW DAY

Today is a new day,
unmarred and unscarred.
Walk softly though it,
for it is the work of God!

Like finding blackberries
fresh, along the way
you choose to walk
on this brand new day!

Fresh and fully ripe,
hidden from view;
Free for the picking
just for me and you!

A treasure for sure
is our blackberry find;
good for berries and cream
or for blackberry wine.

As you walk thru
this brand new day;
Look for treasures
along your way.

Hopefully you may find
something very new;
awaiting your picking,
growing there for you!

As you walk today,
think it not odd
that you may find
the Peace of God!

This new day is
wild blackberry free;
fill your container
and share with me!
