Singing or Yelling


Think about what we are saying
Let’s get it back on track
But now
We can not even tell
When we are doing well
How it’s going
And where we are at
*
Sometimes with preoccupation
Reactions get off track
Like now
We can not even tell
That was the opening bell
Now it is here
This is where we are at
*
We have to find what really matters
All of the time
*
Sometimes what matters most
is not on our mind
*
We do our best
For all of the rest
At least they should
Not have to guess
About our ideas
All of the time
Especially when
Feeling fine
Means being kind
To ourselves
*
It seems there are implications
Our care impacts the facts
Like now
They can not even tell
So we may have to yell
It is best here
When we can react
*
An exciting action
So we can relax


The picture shows a Stellar’s Jay in flight, taken yesterday. Their “singing” often sounds like yelling!
