Renewal
23 April, 1987
LJA
Was it only yesterday
the trees were green and flowers tinged the plain
Was it only yesterday
we laughed and smiled--
and can we laugh again?
Can this new tomorrow be
Was it only yesterday we talked together
a day that's even better than today
stopped to plan and dream
In my mind are questions
Can the night be ending?
mixed with hope and fear
Is a new day dawning?
Are things as they seem? in joy and tears I pray:
Let this new tomorrow be a promise,
be a flower bright as flame
Let this new tomorrow be the start
of more tomorrows just the same.
