When is it going to happen?

One year

Next season

Any day

Now?

New shoes

New car

New home

and world around me

I am a true shape-shifter

I expand and retract

This time I am fast on the track

Sometimes I am held back

But whatever happens

Patience is a life hack

**

I have found it

Nicely rounded

Time to think

Has amounted to relaxation

Another hack to life

I make sure that I get it in when I can

It departs and it arrives

It keeps the wheels turning

With everything inside

Outside we have all of time

**

When are we going to succeed?

One year

Next season

Any day

Now?

New shoes

New car

New home

and world around me

I am a mover and shaker 

I will just get it done

Sometimes I am the only one

Sometimes we have the sun

But whatever happens

A life hack is having fun

**

I look for it

Then support it

Time to think

Has restored our vital energy

Another hack to life

Recharging through exercise

mind and body 

Use our smarts and then we thrive

We keep the ball rolling 

With everything outside

Inside we have all of time

**

In the moment

And for all of time

In the big picture

And for a simple rhyme

*

By working and playing

Resting and creating

*

For the time that we have

Give it all we’ve got

Sometimes just for a laugh

Or for all that we have ever had

Find things to make us glad

Always give it our best shot

**

When can we start to find more peace?

One year

Next season

Any day

Now?

Our food

On par

Fair home

And world around me

I am a smart and hard-worker

I put out and want back

This time they still won’t knock me off track

This time they see my impact

And whatever happens

Balance is a life hack

***

I hold on tight

To my insight

It has taken a lifetime to find it

I take the fight

To a new height

But they have drawn a fine line to blind us

*

If we go past

We could sink fast

While they plan another attack from behind us

But if we last  

It is not rough

And emotions opposing won’t even mind us

**

I hold on tight

To my insight

It has taken forever to find it

I see the light

To make it right

But they have made a mean sign to grind us

*

If we have crashed

But have some class

They try to lower us further to define us

If we can grasp

It won’t be tough

Those opposing won’t be able to bind us

**

They may not notice us

Yet in some ways we stand out

If they don’t acknowledge us

It is not always planned out

They look down on us

Yet we are in some ways above

When they get around to us

They might just fall fast in love

*

It would be more fair

If we all were aware

Or at least if we all tried to be

**

I hold on tight

To my insight

It has taken

all of my life to find it

I take a bite

As it invites 

Because we’re designed together for brightness

*

We have a blast

If you should ask

We make things happen

better when time combines us

And if we match

We will be hot stuff

Once opposing

now we get further with kindness

***

I believe what I want to believe

Some things I’ve seen and heard and felt

I don’t believe all the latest news

or the hand that I’ve been dealt

*

It seems the obvious answer

is not always the best

And the obvious solution

still must pass the test

*

With scrutiny and analysis

And truth that is confessed

**

I believe what I want to believe

Some things I’ve known for all my life

I don’t believe all the gossip I hear

or all of the stress and strife

*

It seems the popular viewpoint 

is not always the best

And the popular perspective 

should include all of the rest

*

With attention and close focus

To the truth and nothing less

***

A shock to the system 

The truth every day

Over and over

Charged up all the way

We are live wires

Not liars

Just thinking out thoughts

with our opinion 

What’s the bottom line?

Are you okay

Living this way?

*

Let’s just make sure

That we all get our say

**

I believe what I want to believe

Many things I’ve had to fight for

I don’t believe

Those with bad perspectives 

Like folks that think with spite more

*

It seems that making assumptions

Is not always the best

Like making our decision

Based on an educated guess

*

We need research and experience

And truth we can’t contest

**

Let’s shock the system 

Bring truth every day

Over and over

Charge up all the way

We are live wires

Not liars

Just think out thoughts

with our opinion 

What’s the bottom line?

Make it okay

For all that stay

*

Work to make sure

That we all get our say

***

No pictures

Nothing other than

Our memories

to help remember the experience

 *

Time may have stayed the same in some ways

Or we could have

changed forever

Some things

My mind won’t rearrange

*

Those moments

Those places

Those people

Are saved within forever

**

No writing

Nothing other than our memories

To help remember the experience 

*

Time may remain the same in some ways

But in some ways

changes forever

Some things my mind won’t ever change

*

Those moments

Those places

Those people

Will stay inside forever

**

I could savour those moments

Or long for them intensely 

*

I could savour others more

I feel emotions immensely

*

Like sights & sounds on the shore

It’s time to even the score

*

Like footprints on a beach

For moments here

At the core

Within our mind

Within our reach

Moments fade or

Moments teach

**

Just stories

Holding onto all

Our memories

to help remember the experience

 *

Time plainly stays the same in some ways

But there is clearly

change forever

Some things

My mind will keep in range

*

Those moments

Those places

Those people

Are saved forever

Or as far as my mind can reach

With stories that will teach

***

We take actions with intention

Draw the line

And then erase it again

*

We still have some apprehension

Walk the line

You don’t see me hesitating

*

Discuss with intention

Draw the line

And then

Frame the perfect tension

**

Of what we are

Thinking of

*

And Who are we

Thinking of

*

Understanding is tough

*

We are enough

**

We are caring with intention

Take your time

And then just take it again

*

We still focus with attention

Calm in time

We are all anticipating 

*

Express with intention

Find the time

And then

Frame your comprehension

**

Of what we are

Thinking of

*

And Who are we

Thinking of

**

Understanding is tough

*

We are enough

To be  able to understand

What Patience demands

*

We should think it all through

All we know, Me and you

Whoever and Whatever

Comes through for us

Has to be true

*

Understanding is tough

We are enough

***

What a freak show!

Can’t help myself

Out of my element

Feeling impact

In the communications

And from the

creeping, dragging time

*

We put on a show

Just for our health

We make an example

Feeling on track

For the communications

And for the

Busy world, leading time

**

We want to confront the time for slowing 

If our main achievements

are not showing

We reveal our product and we’re knowing

Exactly where each day will be going

in whatever we do

Experience is true

As we make it through

Walking calmly while

Warm sunshine is glowing

^^

What a freak show

Must help ourselves

In our own element

Feeling impact

In the communications

And from the

heaping, straggling time

*

in whatever we do

Experience is true

As we make it through

Walking calmly with the

Cool water flowing

**

We get back to our element

There is no consequence

Just more time

and the show that is going

***

I embrace

the doom and gloom

As I move through it

I have no other choice

but to hope for the best

And Push for change

with a specific focus

No matter

how tough times are

We are stars

We must go

so fast and far

Buckle up

Pull it hard

I think that

the door is slightly ajar

**

I handle the mirror

And keep the windshield clear

When mental health fades

we have more fear and anger

Let’s Push for change

with a specific target

*

No matter

how rough times are

We are stars

We must get by fast and far

Stay real calm

Drive the car

Work with better sense

Be safe

And be smart

**

The radio has news or music

You can choose

Let’s improve it

*

Windows up or down

Changing lanes

or calmly cruising

*

Glad we made it this far

Sharing Optimistic views here

*

Stay Alive and well

And not crashing

Loss is useless

Feel good instead

Finding a life that is

not too ruthless

**

We must face the doom and gloom

As we move through it

Try to have a strong voice to

Share hope for the rest

And push for change

with an internal focus

No matter

how tough times are

We are stars

We must get there fast and far

Lights will shine

Future is dark

The ignition is

Strong and starts with a spark

**

This bright device

has news or music

You can choose

Let’s improve it

*

Spirits up or down

Taking a break is

Not losing

*

Glad we made it this far

Sharing Optimistic views here

*

Alive and well

Life is flashing

Sort the true mess

Feel much better

Not all of our time

can be too ruthless

***

Positive

I want you

Sure and pure

Always true

*

We are here

The future’s new

You know we need

All of you

**

Please don’t ever

Look away

Hold our hearts

Make them stay

*

In between the challenge

Is our balance

Feel it flow

All the way

*

Take the day

For All of us

Understand a way

to be positive

For our best day

Every day

**

Positive

We need you

Sure and pure

Make it true

*

Let’s have no fear

The future’s new

You know we need

All of you

***

Look into my eyes

I’m not quite hypnotized

Every time the moon wanes

The night sheds it’s disguise

*

When you look at me

I can plainly see

That I should talk to you

Try to share our views

*

What is on your mind?

There is no denying

We will make it through

**

If not forever

For many moments

And connect them together

Like we had always known it

Into tomorrow 

*

Mindful mood

Big attitude

Not always viewed

Good attitude

** 

Tomorrow the sky

Can not be criticized

Everything that they say

Should come as no surprise 

*

When you look at me

I can plainly see

That I should talk to you

About getting through

*

I’ve got lots on my mind

My plans are flying

How about you?

**

Can we find forever

If for a moment

We connect time together

Like we had always known it

Into tomorrow 

*

Mindful mood

Calm attitude

Not always viewed

Complete gratitude

***

The basic game is always the same

Work and play

Sometimes

Run fast and chase

Hold on tight to our insight 

Somehow we know all of the rules

*

We choose the truth that suits our duty

Quickly move

But our soul is rooted

Hold on tight to what is right

We think we know

How to prove it

**

The instant replay

Says we’re okay

The opposing team still argues

The final decision

Is everyone’s vision

The chosen team

keeps the far view

Far above the rest

Most surely the best

The winners

And all-time champions

We choose all of us

There’s one thing to discuss

**

Playing fair is our view

Here or near or far view

We all are true stars who

deserve more

Meet the standards 

And raise the bar too

Create many more good times

**

The basic game is always

the same

Work and play

Sometimes

Get to home base

Hold on tight with all our might

That’s how we follow

all of the rules

*

We choose the truth

that suits our soothing

Quickly move

But our soul is rooted

Hold on tight to all the light

We think we know

How to improve it

**

Playing fair is our view

Here or near or far view

We all are true stars

who deserve more

Meet the standards 

And raise the bar too

Create many more good times
