There’s this Dolphin bathed in pink,
The pink of a light & merry heart.
Who slumbers upon my bedside;
She is there when I awake.
She gives me courage.
She gives me strength.
She reminds me with her granite soundness
How to believe,
What to think;
She whispers to me as I wake,
Not wishing to move or shake,
“Rise. Stir. Invigorate.
Carpe Diem.
Celebrate.
Today is a gift
Whose treasures fade with sunset,
So for your sake,
AWAKE!
Enjoy and seize what is at stake.
This day please do not forsake.
Rise & wake.”
Her poetic sway lights my days;
Her timeless truth changed my ways.
So I wake before the dawn
Like the dew which dusts the lawn
And I am alive.
And I am free.
Carpe Diem, Destiny.
