Turn
Turn towards the new day
that has left all unfulfilled
anxieties bereft and brought
you a fresh basket
of new possibilities
Turn to the smile of your
innocent child
to pink, yellow and white
spring buds
encouraged to greet you
no matter your state of mind
Turn to the workers that rise up
with crack of dawn to build
new roads that you and I
will soon pass on mindlessly
as we go about our to do lists
Turn to your friends
to your strength
to your kind beating heart.
I promise you
It is there
Turn to the language that brings you alive
that reminds you of life
Beyond fear.
Turn to all the loves that have opened your heart
once. Twice. Countless of joy cries.
Turn to the earth beneath your feet
to the skies lit with delight
to the tall trees gracing your heart
to the most precious face
of courage, to be happy
To the most precious face
of courage, to be happy.
