With Care  (for Michelle)

With care
I open my eyes
On this first day
Of this new world.
With care
I reach for you
On this first day
In our new world.
With care
We smile into each other
On this first day
For our new world.
                                                             With care
                                                             We unveil our dreams
                                                             To create, truly create, on this first day,
                                                             The trembling beauty our new world craves.
