As the sun rises far in the east,
I hear the sounds of beautiful nature.
My small world begins to open,
And once again my hopes rise.

The birds begin their melodious chirping,
The winds start to blow,
The ocean produces an image of intensity,
And the sky begins to blossom.

I drift far away in my unrealistic thoughts,
I imagine I’m flying with swans,
The water is my safe home,
And for a brief moment I am someone special.

The whisper of green leaves wake my soul,
The flowers bloom my thoughts,
The branches show their consistent support,
And the warmth from the sun lifts me high.

As the sun rises far in the east,
I hear the sounds of beautiful nature.
My small world begins to open,
And once again my hopes rise.

&quot;Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, its about learning to dance in the rain.&quot;<br /> &quot;The reason people hold onto memories so tight is because they are the only things that don&#039;t change, even when everything else does.&quot;
