WITH THE PROPER ATTITUDE

 

WITH THE PROPER ATTITUDE

I feel as though I'm blessed

I wake up each morning new

I hear sweet singing from the birds

the blades of grass moist from the dew

Red breasted Robins are a sure sign

that spring is definitely on its way

I try to show humility

as I am gifted with each day

I've seen a lot of lonely winters

but dreary days , they are no more

Of course we'll have seasonal rains

but we all know what they are for

The planets lined up in a row

the moon is shadowed by eclipse

I love the wind kissing my air

I love the sea's mist on my lips

I feel the sun caress my body

slight persperation on my brow

I won't be haunted by my past

I focus on the here and now

I hope to have a full rich summer

I'll make the best of everything

And with the proper attitude

I know my heart will always sing
