Between a thrice crow and morning call,

Eyes awaken upon drifting clouds.

From a canvas swept clean by night’s hand,

A pathway is now born.

Like an egg cracking to release new life,

This day breaks with unimagined potential.

How will our road proceed?

Upon which mountain will we find ourselves?

And to which end will we find our feet resting?

Such is the hope that rises with each radiant beam of light.

Let us move between the trees,

And breathe in the joy of each imperfect moment.
