A New Life Begin Poem by Richard (Narad) Eggenberger

A New Life Begin

I have lost my fascination with the stars.
They yield no light upon the taxing way
And what romance is left within the moon
When trampled by man's heavy feet of clay?
But breaks another wild and sun-touched morn
With sparkling dew and creatures winged and free
And with the veils of all illusions torn
I am filled with hope and newfound energy.
The flowers in their wise simplicity
Follow their progenitor, the sun
And we who seek a greater wisdom's truth
Must find within our dwelling place, the One
We carry in ourselves, the fount of hope,
The light that burns so brilliantly within
Guiding us upon the rocky slope
To find our truth and a new life begin.
