FISHING FOR THOUGHTS
IN GENTLE CONTEMPLATION
HE CASTS HIS LINE AHEAD
TO REST UPON THE WATER
WHERE HE HAS THROWN HIS BREAD
THE FISH IN NO GREAT HURRY
JUST KNOCK AGAINST THE FLOAT
WHILE IN THE LAZY CURRENT
HE DRIFTS WITHIN HIS BOAT
CLOUDS IN SILENT MOVEMENT
CAST SHADE UPON THE SCENE
AS IN A WORLD OF WONDER
HE ROAMS INTO HIS DREAMS
WITH EYELIDS THAT ARE HEAVY
AND FLICKER IN THE LIGHT
HE WANDERS OFF TO NEVERLAND
WHERE ALL THE FISH WILL BITE
FOR IT’S NOT IN THE CATCHING
OR WHAT HE’LL HAVE FOR TEA
BUT ALL ABOUT THIS MOMENT
WHEN HE IS TOTALLY FREE
Magic in a Cuddle
There is magic in a cuddle
There is joy within a smile
It’s nice to drink in laughter
If only for a while
So cherish every moment
Of things that come your way
For life can be so fleeting
And we never count our days
So breathe in every second
And dance inside its charm
Then try to be that person
That gives out love and calm
The one that lights a room up
And greet each day with glee
As you travel on your journey
To a place that you should be
That little piece of heaven
That’s yours and yours alone
A haven of forgiveness
That only you can own
Thought to Ponder – “Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.” – Kahlil Gibran
