Poem Artwork

It's time for a growth spurt,
Impregnate the future
Plant your feet then jump the moon
This world has enough losers
Life can become stagnant
As days seem to regress
Light a candle, play some music
Get yourself out of this mess
Compel yourself with inner strength
Find that light inside
Don't expect anything to offer a free ride
If you want change then change it,
Make living it a fact
Turn that frown upside down
Do without the slack
Life is for the living
There's no slackers here
If you don't like something
CHANGE IT!
Take a nose dive without fear
Living is just that ...
LIVING!
It's you who makes the call
Learn that life is putting forth
The power how er' small
Rollerballing energy begins with just a thought
If you want change then...Change it
Don't think it can be bought.

Very inspiring for those who need to understand that nothing gets accomplished in life without moving forward and taking positive steps to that goal...including taking risks (educated and calculated) but taking those risks may lead to greater rewards. Excellent expression, Susan

Don't think it can be bought.

Most certainly, it can't be bought, borrowed, stolen... and you can't rely on anyone else to do it for you. Change starts with me first, whether the problem is perceived to be my own or someone else's. Can feel the energy in this vibe, Susan. Just that alone bring change. Excellent! :)) TY Kate xx

Continuing to move forward requires the diligence and discipline necessary to recognise and understand (to a degree) the entire spectrum of emotion and challenge that the human condition is confronted with in the pursuit of ones individual dreams.

Planting ones feet and jumping the moon is a good image Belle. In these days, though, one must navigate all the space junk between the desire and the goal, and then re-enter the earths atmosphere without getting burned.

This write brought a shaft of light into my heart.
Blessings ...

So true are your words, Susan. No one can change our lives but us. Once this fact is acknowledged and accepted, there is no turning back and our lives are, indeed, much happier. I've lived this one, myself.

Thanks for this inspiring piece. It'll help and touch many.

Your poem is timely. Two things have changed on this day for me.
I helped one of them happen, and the other grew out of previous effort. I'd better watch you..... messing around in my changes this way. Thanks for giving each of us on AD a winner for the day, the benefits of which should last for years. - Bill
