I Have New Plants

A Poem

I have new plants.
New goosebumps.
I have new perspective.
Newfound time.
I can’t say I have peace, yet.

I have new priorities.
New confidence.
I have new clarity.
Newfound resolve.
I can’t say I have understanding, yet.

I have an old fire in my belly.
Old sense of self.
I have an old knack for new things.
Old love for writing.
I can’t say I have an old you, yet.

You were new, but this got old.
