Cthe sun's ability to change your life
the sun's ability to change your life
Dacceptance of a new beginning
Opportunity knocked on my door.
It was soft, yet loud.
I went to see what was in store.
The sun greeted me
as I opened the door
in its hand there was a key.
My head was spinning
What am I to do?
I knew this was just the beginning.
I took the key
and held it in my hand.
It was now up to me.
I stood up tall
and accepted the challenge.
I would rise above all.
Opportunity knocked on my door.
Thank you for choosing me.
I can’t wait to soar!
Dacceptance of a new beginning
The personification in the second stanza, where the sun is depicted as greeting the speaker and holding a key, represents the acceptance of a new beginning and the idea that the sun has the ability to change the speaker's life by offering them opportunities.
