Life is Now Calm and Bold

Life abruptly interrupted

My leisurely stroll

Time erupts in my day to day

In moments chance stole

*

All that we have planned is

without warning put on hold

All that was simmering

And boiling hot

Is now frozen cold

**

Life correctly double-checked

The moments that fate stole

Time connects my day to day

To moments that chance sold

*

All that we have planned was

put on temporary hold

Though it was once frozen

Time has melted

Now we chase our goals

**

Life has surprises

We have to be wise and

Be ready

*

Life has disguises

We need good advice and

To stay steady

**

For every chance

The big plans

To advance

Our good causes

No more unnecessary losses

*

Take each moment

develop health

For ourselves

And everyone else

Despite what

the momentary cost is

**

Life abstractly impacted

Everything I was told 

Time keeps track of

my day to day

Moments kept in the fold

*

All that we have planned is

Clearly taken off of hold

All that was shivering

Or way too hot

Is now calm and bold

***

It Works Out for the Best

My sure confidence

compels me

But my nerves try to sell me

Down the river

*

I will deliver

Many things that go my way

Propel me

*

Swimming fast

with plans for safety

The future and success

When it works out for us

it works out for the best

**

A new confidence can help me

If my nerves try to sell me

Down the river

Won’t shake and shiver

Is there something that

you want to tell me?

*

Climbing

to opportunity

The future and success

When it works out for us

it works out for the best

**

We should

never falter

because of

spite, fear and ignorance

Let’s Protect shared dignity

And avoid blind obedience

*

We should

look past the lies

and harmful views

that hold us all back

Let’s Protect the clear channels that keep

health and wellness on track

**

My true confidence compels me

But my nerves try to sell me

Down the river

*

I will not quiver

As those with bad angles try to shell me

*

Shielded by

our understanding

of the future and success

When it works out for us

it works out for the best

The Energy that Life Brings (I Hate Being Late)

When I have seized the moment

Taken the chance to be free

*

I feel the light

It enhances my vision

Reaching for the sight

To a person, place or thing

An activity that I do

Defining experience in

The mood that has ensued

The energy that life brings 

**

Good things happen

When we reach out

When we get past fear

and lose our doubts

We may also have to wait

But not too long

I hate being late

**

When I have missed the moment

Due to chance or bad timing

*

I lose some light

It drains from my vision

Straining on all sights

For a person, place or thing

An activity that I do

A grinding experience in

The mood that has ensued

The energy that life brings 

**

Hard things happen

When straining fails

When we work harder

To no avail

We may also have to wait

Pray not too long

I hate being late

**

When I savour the moment

Or cherish a memory

*

Shimmering lights

Frame the edge of my vision

Focusing the sights

Of a person, place or thing

An activity that I do

Every fine experience in

The mood that has ensued

The energy that life brings 

**

Wonderful things happen

When we focus

When we work smarter

Life will show us

We may also have to wait

The days are long

And there is no debate

Days can be tough

Days can be great

Either way

I hate being late

***

Strong on Our Feet

I reach for the sky

And take it all in

I rise up so high that

I catch the wind

*

Brave wings in the clouds

Gusting through trees

Taking away doubts

Cleansing

Majestic evergreens

*

Racing through branches 

Carrying dreams

Looking for an advantage 

Within the sun beams

**

I reach with my eyes

And energy within

I rise for the prize

My tomorrow begins

*

Share visions with crowds

And words with a beat

Our caring grows loud

Like the spectacular scene

*

Climbing up mountains

Reach heights with teams

Like love we can count on

Find free flowing streams

**

I reach for the light

And take it all in

I find it so bright

As the day spins

*

Find what life is about

So it feels good to breathe

And give a shout-out

With all of our greatest beliefs

*

Shine like the warm sun

Give off more heat

Know if the storm comes

We are strong on our feet

***

Whatever I say

Don’t mind me

I’m saying what I want

Are you keeping track?

It is all fact

*

Don’t mind me

I will not tease or taunt

You won’t be attacked

I will watch your back

*

Whatever I say

It is just a fragment of time

Come find me

I have lots on my mind

**

Sometimes it is best to keep my mouth shut

But I am not a big fan of silence

When we say things

that can help more causes

What is with all the petty defiance?

**

In the system

Some folks listen

Some just turn away

*

In time

By opening our mind

We find more chances

For a better day

**

Don’t mind me

I’m saying what I want

Do you think I’m fake?

What is your take?

*

Don’t mind me

My ghosts will never haunt

Oh, for God’s sake

Give me

a freaking break

*

Whatever I say

I will put it all on the line

Come find me

I have not lost my mind

++

If you listen

To our system

Please don’t turn away

+

In good time

By opening our mind

We find more chances

For a better day

Healthy

We can’t wait anymore

Started by feeling out of season

Thriving well

Nothing more to tell

Our appearance turns out pleasing

Such a perfect reason

To be carrying on

Fear is long gone

If we freeze

In a winter breeze

At least we seized the day

And for some folks made it okay

In a fresh and healthy way

*

We can’t fake it anymore

In our groove we have to be moving

Alive and well

Nothing more to tell

Our proof is not a new thing

So we keep it cooling

And growing so strong

Losing is long gone

If we choose

The kind

Better truth

At least we can rule the day

And for more folks make it okay

It’s the best, most healthy way

*

The most healthy way

To get through the day

Is to work as hard as we have to

And take time to play

Move our body in good ways

Rest enough

Until we feel tough and

Nurture every phase

Food and drink

So we can raise

The bar and get far

With the healthiest of ways

Physical Mental Social

A good life that stays

*

We can’t ignore anymore

Must stop just lazing

And start chasing

To survive well

Nothing more to tell

More days will be replacing

Hard times we were facing

Efficient Not wrong

Waste is long gone

If we all raise a better place

At least we saved the day

And for more folks made it okay

Investing in a healthy way

***

Make it Through

We go through life

The days smooth as glass

We enjoy our time

And work hard to achieve

*

We move just right

Our wheels turn so fast

Everything is fine

We just have to believe

*

We are surprised by a challenge

And it’s not in our wheelhouse

How can we stop it from all crashing down?

**

Slow down and dig deep

Find calm 

*

Take a deep breath

*

Envision the next logical step

To improving our current life

and Feeling better

*

We can

Impact the situation 

This time

by developing a new view

*

Make your move

Make it happen

*

Make it through

Your way

*

Reach out and be brave

**

We get through life

Sometimes: Need more cash

We savour our time

And work hard to achieve

*

We need what’s right

Our days shouldn’t crash

Everyone should feel fine

We just have to believe

*

They are surprised

by a challenge

It is not in their wheelhouse

How can we stop it

from all crashing down?

**

Feel up

Really dig deep

Find calm

Take a deep breath

*

Envision the next logical step

To resuming a better life and

Feeling better

*

We can

Resolve the situation

In time by creating a new view

*

Time will soothe

Make it happen

*

Make it through

Your way

*

Reach out

Strive to be well

And be safe

Better by Design

I can anticipate the best of times

We have to know what is on the line

Real as life

We must be wise

Our day is defined

By our own design

*

It is real

This big deal

What we feel

Supplying my soul and mind again

*

It feels like I’m right on time

**

I am situated at the edge of time

I do not know who is on the line

Real as life

They must be wise

Our day is defined

By all their design

*

Is it real

This big deal

What we feel

Now finding our soul and mind again

I feel like we need more time

**

Just the other day

As I was talking on the line

I remembered

a main goal in life

is to help

our ideas combine

So we can all feel fine

Better by design

*

Real strong every day

We are always

walking down the line

How could I forget

a main goal in life

Is to help

our paths combine

So we can all feel fine

Better by design

**

We can fluctuate like the rest of times

We have to know where to draw the line

Real as life

We must be wise

Our day is defined

By all our design

*

It is real

This big deal

What we feel

Dividing our soul and mind again

*

I just want to heal

I can always deal but

I don’t want to feel

like I’m out of time

***

Pursue a Mood of Strength and Hope

We all know enough

To know much better

We try to stay tough

Just so we can get along

*

We think that it is rough

But we are real go-getters

Aim to stay above troubles

Find ways to be strong

**

Find an understanding mood

Work to get past all of the indifference

With it’s huge magnitude

I strive to

Never get lost in

Another deeply anxious mood

Or reach total exhaustion

No one should

fear not having food

Higher-ups should show compassion

And not cash-in on

a bad attitude

**

We all know enough

To know much better

We can’t push and shove

As we join in with the throng

*

We gravitate to love

But we aren’t big-time betters

Gamble on social bubbles

To help us get along

**

Find the hope that we pursued

By avoiding other interference

We expect to be rescued

And strive to never get lost again

I’ve reached peace that I pursued

There seems to be no question 

No wicked nightmares to intrude 

Now there’s no more apprehension

Hope

helps us ascend

To good attitude

**

We all know enough

To know much better

Try for peace and love

And learn to tell

Right from wrong 

*

We work to stay above

Both calm and churning waters

I always check the levels

Then dive

Into a song

**

Get up another time

Find calm be kind

Stay cool in our mind

It’s real

*

Find strength at any length

And with every design

Find the hope

That we need to feel

*

It’s right

At heights

To see what is wrong

We all know enough

To know much better

*

For what’s fair:

Stay tough

The days go on and on

Find hope

It’s scope

Makes us

much stronger

Together

***

One Step Forward

One step forward

Two steps back

Until we get ahead

And get on track

*

What is the reward?

A major stack?

If we get ahead

And we can keep it on track

*

Right down to the line

We should be feeling fine

So long as we

Aim to get us all forward

**

One step forward

Don’t look back

Until we are all set

And we stay on track

*

What do I prefer

Cut me some slack?

If we can get set

We will always be on track

*

Have a better time

Aim to always be kind

Stay so strong as 

We both have another word

**

I want to say

Right now today

We should work to move

Towards

The on track

No flack

True fact that

we would do well to push

Forward to increase 

The average quality of life

It just seems wise

No attack

Just strong back

Quick hack 

Until we get

Back on track

With everyone we Love
