A Golden Rose

Gold Rose

This little flower wasn’t in the garden of a queen,

Or even in a place where it might be seen,

Yet it was beautifully dressed,

Looking it’s best, as if blessed,

Bringing joy where it dwelt,

Sharing fragrance with any who smelt.

Oh that I, daily might try, to be

An affinity, in similarity.

The Passive Line

People

Among strangers

In line together

Mumbling

Grumbling

Shuffling feet in weariness

I stood behind you

As you spoke

A breath of fresh air

Uplifted

Awakened

My senses, because your words changed

The whole atmosphere.

Words full of

Positivity,

Thankfulness,

Permeated

And turned strangers into

Lively comrades

Focus On The Light

Inside a Covered Bridge
Where ere your journey

Or your pathway might take you

Keep moving forward

Stay focused on reaching 

The end of your tunnel 

Where you’ll find your freedom’s light 

Don’t let obstacles

Detour or delay your purpose

Set your face like flint

Positivity

Cloudy sky, blue sky
Winds of change blow

Trying to chase blues away

Clouds flood the blue sky

Changing it to white and bright

Often change is good

Things take on a better hue

So if life looks blue

Rise up, try to make a change 

Color your world, make it new
