Nautical Dawn- Desiree Lepore-Mendez, senior

Glistening, 

A gleam of hope,

Anticipation thickening, 

Through all I’ve coped,

All the wait, 

Prosperous fate, 

It twinkles in the twilight, 

Is it love?

Is it joy?

No but it’s everything and more, 

Twinkling in my eyes, 

Gleaming,

The awe and raw power, 

Blinding my eyes 

Angelic touch, 

Angelic kiss, 

Pure bliss of hope 

Pure source of joy 

Pure fruits of health 

The light begins to grow, 

Is it end of the beginnings? 

Or beginning of ends?

Alas, 

I see the dawn of my new life
