Usually on most days
Life’s journey moves along
Solving another maze
Each answer never wrong
Hourly reality check
Simple truths always guide
Avoiding any wrecks

Certain as each sunrise
Stirring thoughts to exchange
Nothing waits in disguise
Goodness set to deploy
Positive always leads
Going forward brings joy
Lasting happiness freed
