Exercise attitude

Realize that you will get through with it

Work

to establish

a better balance

with everything around us

Recognize benefit

See all the sides to find the truth of it

Work

to understand

and always balance

With all we have around us

so we can improve our life

And maintain it

Choose our goal

And attain it

As we confidently walk down a pathway

And choose our destination

We may always have the last say

With optimistic concentration 

And adapting to the meaning

No matter what happens

Stay strong, never wrong

Aim to be fair and never sad then

By taking care

Not getting mad and

By being aware

Work to be glad and self-assured 

Energize every mood

Empathize to share a better view of it

Work

to encourage 

a better balance

with everyone around us

With everything around us

Work to find the best attitude

And realize what we can do with it

Work

To develop

A better balance

With the world that is around us

And within our minds

And without denial

The new time that has found us

***

On the edge of

The city

Agriculture

Fields in constant transition

*

Beyond

The climbing forest

Snow 

Like froth on a wave

An icy crust rises to the top

Crashing with the wind

Building higher over thousand of years

*

Proud and wise

Dormant now

With greatest influence

from a thoughtful vision

That holds us together

A promised balance

*

The steady peak of a volcano

Can forever be

A towering mountain

Head above the sea

Watching the land

Beyond borders

A welcome sight

*

With internal peace

Each of us can find in ourselves

When we are reassured by the strength

and beauty of the world

And the volatile guts at our core

Burn evenly

Like fuel in a fine-tuned engine

Moving us forward in time

*

Internal energy stable and synchronized

Working to keep progress calm

Without chaotic fury

That would spill over

And destroy our peace

*

Today

We are privileged

Those of us

that observe a settled world around us

Family trees living naturally

Skies not torn by war

Fair balances between what we reap

consume and distribute 

Business hard at work to produce

A better view for more of us

All of us

Near or far

On our Earth

***

Hiding until the future

Tomorrow waits in secret

Forget the overbearing past

If we can make sense of the present

With only what we have

No burden of stale practices

No misguided expectations 

Just present day drives

*

Of course

there is no denying what we are made of

Our history remains

Extract the winning points 

*

No matter what

Put the future together

with a clear mind and a kind heart

With strong determination and soul

There are many different ways

To do our best

And make it work for more of us

*

The world starts

with our personal perspective

Always

***

Make decisions in the day

Think clearly in every way

Great idea

But not for some

Think again

Who is number one?

*

Any given time and 

Any given location

We deal with life as best we can

In any given situation

*

Progress in a thought

In an instant we are caught

For a moment of indecision

Now we have a better vision

**

Take action every day

Stay strong in our own way

Great idea

Good news will come

Stay sure?

Keen optimism 

*

Any given time and 

Any given location

We deal with life as best we can

in any given situation

*

Progress from an action

In an instant we gain traction

In moments of apprehension 

Find our way past all the tension

Understanding

Then landing

Like the future

We are so sure

Our confidence has

strong comprehension

hard work and good luck

I certainly have to mention

***

The situation is only one

of an infinite variety

Much of what we perceive

Naturally comes through the light

in and out of focus

Until crystal clear

The truth of the matter

is in so many deep contexts

Rivers

Lead to oceans in our thoughts

Every angle sinks

and has a bottom

Earth

Going down to the core

Or reaching out to the horizon

Sandy beach, a trail to the street

Fields and yards

Buildings and mountains

Trees reaching up to the sky and clouds

Glowing in our eyes

The sun with infinite contexts

And reflected by the moon at night

A more temperamental presence

With possibilities right next to unlimited

Only lack of vision

Or shallow perceptions

Will slow our ability to absorb reality

We make pathways into the light

To ground our beliefs

And secure our future
