it was a long and fun filled night
drawing away from the tasks
letting the mind relax and unwind
even to become a touch forgetful
turing off the mind
tuning out the world
calmly letting go
recharging the spirit
now the time has come once more
to saddle up for the bumpy ride
settle the fedora back on the head
make sure the whip in on the belt
turning on the mind
tuning in the world
calmly grabbing hold
sharing of my spirit
the new day dawns regardless
whether we are prepared or not
smile and stand to face it boldly
accept yesterday is now history
turning on the life
tuning into the living
calmly embracing all
sharinng of the love
once more stepping forward
into the bright future ahead
no time to fret about yesterday
all are not historians for a reason
turning on the joy
tuning into happiness
calmly feeling good
passing on the smile
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.

a very soft and gentle rendition of transitions...
ReplyDeleteI will read this one day when I am not quite ready for one. I'll let you know how it goes.
I enjoyed this poem as it gives a very positive vibe. It conjures the picture of one taking on the world bravely. :)
