Good Day
The horizon leans forward,
Offering you space to place new steps of change.
Here, on the pulse of this fine day You may have the courage
To look up and out upon me, the Rock, the River, the Tree, your country.
No less to Midas than the mendicant.
No less to you now than the mastodon then.
Here on the pulse of this new day
You may have the grace to look up and out
And into your sister's eyes, intoYour brother's face, your country
And say simply
Very simply
With hope
Good morning
