Be happy not sad
Be rather glad
As quality of life will add
And that’s not at all bad
Instead it’s rather rad
And the knowledge is iron clad
Not at all a passing fad
Evolution, your life’s launching pad…

Beauty, stood alone, collecting her thoughts.
She collected them, safely storing each.
Not conflicted by her haves and have nots.
A happy contentment just in her reach.
Sweet feeling inside like a summer peach.
Her lived life thus far has been far from fair.
Now she floats through, almost lighter than air.
Filled with a strength she thought she’d never have.
Strolling down the boulevard with a flare.
A fulfilled life that she’d happily grab.

Small moments in time and space
Each one quite unique
Here a short time in this place
For a day, month or a week.

Never be afraid
Until you’re a ghost
For the more of yourself you invest
Will pay you off the most…

Oh distant star show me your light
I feel so alone tonight
Please shine very bright
So I can feel more than your sight
As I wish with all my might
That I might get these words right
Universe, understand my plight…

Just below the spectrum of sound
There’s an ugliness, free, abound.
–
Through description isn’t needed
All my advice should be heeded.
–
Ugliness, doesn’t speak it only feels
Pain and hurt that are all too real.
–
Drowning rain on your sunny days
Crippling insecurities, all allayed.
–
Sad thoughts bad thoughts come to mind
Leaving in each of us, a hurtful bind.
–
Negative energy is where we’re at
“Too thin” “ Too redundant” or “Too fat”.
–
Fight those dark thoughts, as best you can
Know we’re meant for better, is our plan.
–
Pour salt water onto the seeds of doubt
A happy life is where it’s about.
–
Take many chances, venture far from home
Endless miles from your comfort zone.
–
Where growth and peace appear
And no longer living life In fear.
–
As you pass each and every test
You come out the other side, as your best…
-aaa
Little bird spread your wings
Move along, to better things.
–
Fly high, far, and away
To a much better day.
–
You are meant for better things
A happy life and the joy it brings.
–
So take the lessons and your lumps
Uphill, downhill, flat ground, bumps.
–
What doesn’t destroy makes you stronger
Take quick lessons and ones lasting longer.
–
Find inner peace and a smile on your face
Living a life at your very own pace.
–
In the end my friend, you’re you
Becoming the best in all you do.
–
So there’s no need to cry or shout
When going gets tough it’s what life’s about.
