This is a place of new beginnings
virgin yet familiar ground.
A traveller starts a brand new journey
treading paths he's trod before,
navigates familiar contours,
passes once familiar routes.

New experience; revelation.
His head now in a different place.
All around him new creation;
a new scenario; so intense.
Casting off the stale and jaded
He sees with child like eyes again.

Old mistakes are put behind him.
He's dead to all that went before.
Yesterday's a different country;
The focus now on what's ahead.
Forge ahead with new excitement.
Embrace the future now at hand.

I thought I should start with a 'beginning' poem.
