New Sights - 1. Poem Entry - New Sights.

New sights:

Waking up to quietness.
Realizing that new chances are abroad.
Already revising plans that haven't yet begun.
It's the calm before the storm.
The current page before the flip.
Take a left when you're supposed to take a right.
Live life on the edge and travel down that road.
The one that leads to a new beginning, a new path.
People pretend to change, but many replace their,
say with blame.
Many don't change at all, limiting their success with,
disdain and disappointment in their defiant ways.
Time doesn't stop, so try something new, pursue it,
and make the debut. For your own sake.
Let's regenerate and commemorate memories that will,
lead to a pleasant future.
No more holding on to the past as it holds us back from,
the real success.
We will walk together into the open region.
Past all the growth yet to be seen and head into the future.

I liked this, especially the line the current page before the flip.  Thank you for posting this.

Glad you liked this line it was an important thought I had while writing this poem. I always have thought of life being like a book. No matter what situation you’re in, good or bad. It’s not the end. The worst possible case it’s the end of the page before a new chapter begins.

An uplifting poem with a positive message. Uplifting and positive are two things we need more and more of today.

Thanks for writing, posting and sharing your messages with us 

Agreed, life can be challenging at times but as long as there’s the little positive things each day, we are able to overcome almost anything! Thanks for reading my poems!

"Already revising plans that haven't yet begun."

I love this line. It speaks of the excitement that follows throughout the rest of the poem. I like poetry with calls for action, whether from without or within, and yours delivers just such a message. I also love the line @Parker Owens quoted. I suspect all writers can strongly relate to it. Great job. Thank you! Gary.

Thanks for the support and taking the time to read! This line is important to me as it symbolizes that taking the time to make plans can make the objective of where you want to go in life or in general, better as you’ve thought of a clear path before going forward with an idea. :)

That was my favorite line as well. :)  

To me, this poem has the feel of spoken word poetry.  I like the intermittent rhyme thrown in and the overall feel of the poem. You've definitely taken us on a journey of exploration.  Thank you for participating in the anthology!
