Caught In The Moment ~
I'm sitting here, with tea in hand
trying hard to understand
What makes the sky turn shades of gray
why no sunshine is displayed
Looking deep inside myself
seeking answers that may help
Weariness consumes my soul
when I reflect on days of old
The future seems so out of reach
thoughts on paper, run with ink
Questions live inside my heart
where to finish, how to start
Perhaps I need to rest awhile
smell the roses, learn to smile
Yesterday, but a memory
tomorrow's path, we can't foresee
Live each moment, give life a chance
love to laugh, be sure to dance
Forget the grief, toss it away
count each Blessing, everyday
Happiness lives inside our soul
it's up to us to find the mold
Dripping ink spills from my pen
find own answers deep within
A step at a time, get thru each task
forget the burdens of darkened past
Find a strength, release a sigh
each breath of hope will help survive
These little scribbles talk to me
written verse for all to see
Nothing lost is ever gained
dark and light are not the same
Flowers bloom in early spring
happy hearts will learn to sing
Love thyself, be number one
embrace each day when it is done
So as I sit, with tea in hand
thoughts are scribbled with my pen
