First Impressions

Aaw where are you taking me?
Why are you setting me free?
What is happening to my little house,
Oh give me back my peaceful cocoon!

Don't Push I say, don't you dare
Don't you push me out of here!
Ouch, the light on my eyes they glare
And the sounds around me won't cease to be!

Hey put me down right now will you,
You there in the gown so long so blue
Don't peer at me with those big eyes of yours
And don't point and prod, aw that hurts

I want to roll up and just sleep,
So tired I am can't you see?
Just leave me be and don't you coo at me!
Put me back in my home I am hungry!

Now who is this person picking me
She looks so lovely with her sweet smile
And how she warms me as she cuddles me close
Finally some milk for my parched throat

Thats so much work I have to do
My life has turned Topsy turvy too
From my peaceful life there inside,
Here I have been rudely pushed ,
to a world so large in size!

I have to work so hard just to eat
And amidst the noise try to sleep
Now I am so tired, let me snuggle up close
Keep me warm while I try to doze!

What a rude shock for a new born to be born in this chaotic world. That was quite a rude awakening don't you think? In response to Writer's Island prompt Awakening!

Over the horizon

Over the horizon, the promise of light
New beginnings dawn, a whole new life
To live and conquer a bright new day
The very first for the rest of my life

As I walk my walk I ask myself
Will I reach whole new heights?
Will I conquer the world in my stride?
Will I acquire success oh so elusive?

I trip, I fall, I hurt as I walk...
I get up and walk a little too fast
The light blurs and the horizon seems so far...
The sun is setting on my day...
But I still have a long long way!

I stop to think and I find...
I have been there all the time!
The bliss and peace has always been mine..
Oh if only I had stopped before

And then I look up only to see
Over the horizon, the promise of light
New beginnings dawn, a whole new life
To live and conquer a bright new day
The very first for the rest of my life

Writers Island prompt - Over the horizon.
Here's wishing all the writers a wonderful "rest of your life". I think of Scarlet from "Gone with the wind" standing at the stoop of Tara... looking over the horizon and declaring "Tomorrow is a new day"...
Oh yes it is and like the saying goes.. Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life!
