MORNING VOW, by JANE DUNNING ROUNDS First Line: Dawn came suddenly on wings! Last Line: Then for tomorrow, come what may . . . Subject(s): Day | ||||||||
Dawn came suddenly on wings! In my heart and mind it sings, Another day has come for me -- Another day, and I am free From all the bonds of yesterday, To start anew, to work and play, As I have never done before. I vow that I'll accomplish more With my full hours. No minute will Slip idly by, for I must fill Each one with joys for today; Then for tomorrow, come what may . . . | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EARLY RISER by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE THE LOVE POEMS OF MARICHIKO: 19 by KENNETH REXROTH THE THIN EDGE OF YOUR PRIDE: 13 by KENNETH REXROTH SPENDING THE DAY ON A SLEEPING PORCH by REBECCA WOLFF THE BEACON; A MUSICAL DRAMA by JOANNA BAILLIE DAYS OF THE MONTH by MOTHER GOOSE ST.
