Optimism

by Jill Eisnaugle — Read all 611 poems by Jill Eisnaugle

A poem of hope and encouragement for anyone having a bad day.

Monday, June 9, 2008


Poem Artwork

 

 
You see through optimistic eyes
Life’s glass always half full
Your smile is the perfect disguise
Even if days seem dull
You never let a moment fade
Without maintaining trust
That each decision you have made
Has been both fair and just.
 
You’ve always welcomed others home
With a heartfelt embrace
Down each road you’ve chosen to roam
You have traveled in grace
Each morning, hope is in your sight
Once you rise for the day
To you, the universe is right
When fears are kept at bay.
 
You never doubt there is a time
For every goal you seek
There may be a mountain to climb
Before you reach the peak
But, win your quest, I know you will
Under vast skies of blue
Because you’ve been given the skill
To seize what’s meant for you.

Giving others, with just a few words, a sense of peace, comfort, care, makes the difference...doing it with a poem is like converting a everyday "granted" thing to a piece of a fine emotional art.

I had a very good day today, thank you. Was able to download the little butterfly on my newest and felt Tom's spirit was with me on that. Took no time at all to do it either. Was surprising fast and got on the poem immediately. Some have bad days I know, but good ones come and a rainbow is seen in the sky. Beautiful rainbow photo.
