This poem will be featured in my first poetry book. It is a gift to everyone who has accompanied me on this platform and supported my journey.
Thank you for your kindness, encouragement, and continued support. Each of you inspires me in your own way, and I am deeply grateful to have you here.
With gratitude,
Rolando Andrade
Renewal
The first light of morning,
the dawn of a new world.
A bird bursts from its egg,
and after the night
a slow, radiant peace rises,
the silence and spring that were foretold
have arrived this morning

Final thought: If these words stayed with you for a moment,
this space might be for you too.
I write here every week —
sometimes in the open,
sometimes a little closer,
for those who choose to stay.
They did stay, Rolando. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful... congratulations on the new book!
