Today is a new beginning.
Dawn told me this once
As the glow of the rising sun grew closer
The dancing stars faded
When I felt like giving up,
The morning air reminded me that today is a new day,
The sky took me on a journey farther than the clouds and
Night taught me to never give up.
Because tomorrow is a new day.

I loved how optimistic the poem was. I really love the personification in the line "The dancing stars faded." Great job!
