Something New
At daybreak The sun rises High in the sky And even as time passes by It is ok to try To create something new By being someone new And begin anew
Expecting
Expecting via great expectations Upholding high values Sometimes unrealistic Pressure could push Yet when push comes to shove Expecting pure love And reverence Is the greatest expectation
Suite
Grandiose grandeur California Plaza Saccharine sweetness Relish the pleasure Of pure enjoyment And have A Room of One’s Own To enjoy one’s place In a whole new world
Dig Deeply
Uncover what is beneath (but seek truth cautiously) For reality is subjective And sometimes coal could just be diamonds in the rough
Hold Fast
Keep holding on But not too fast For patience is virtuous And this moment Is not the last And the best Present Moment In Time For all Time
Confer
Confer Conference Confirmation Concur Infer Refer Regulate But not manipulate Be willing To congratulate The ones who devote Their entire lives For the sake of others Selflessly For those are the ones who benefit themselves And humanity
Thaw
Frozen Chillin’ Cold like Chillingworth After birth A heart could freeze If one fails to seize This very moment Upon this only day And not let the mind Wander astray But rather than chill Utilize will The renewable resource To get back on course
Operose
Life could be complicated But it does not have to be Simply be oneself And practice nobility Life might not be an opera In fact, it could be operose Nevertheless Even when weary People can still think clearly And utilize intellect For pure betterment Choose to live with serene serenity
Posthumous
Sometimes the famous End up being posthumous But we honor them
Vaunted
Highly Or Widely Praised Or Boasted about Nevertheless, There is no need To feel haunted Take the step And escape the past And enjoy now And that is how The present Is the greatest gift Of all
