Sunrise brightens this day
Framing with precious light
Adventure comes this way
Guiding morning’s delights
Clearest blue sky above
Releasing gentle voice
Blessed with Creator’s love
Calling self to rejoice
Stillness of ocean’s breeze
Finding life’s missing piece
Each hour dissolves unease
Unlocking time’s new lease
Peaceful waters spread out
Prevailing winds called forth
Navigation’s new route
Setting compass true north

Dawn’s inspiration
Creator’s masterful truth—
Every unique breath
Beloved contrast
Landscape’s eternal bloodstream—
Ancient, yet unborn
Boundless spirit thrives
Tiniest ember of life—
Tomorrow wakens

The greatest use of a life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.
The art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook.
Williams James (1842-1910) was an American psychologist and philosopher. He has often been referred to as the “father of American psychology.”
Words used every day
Little or much to say
Used in positive ways
Conveying life’s essays
Mindful, powerful voices
Daily, humble choices
Impacting other lives
Celebrate with high fives
Disciplined purpose speaks
Positivity seeks
Sharing tender kindness
Truthful, without blindness
Careful to help and heal
Offering a square deal
Words paying it forward
True and straightforward
Thoughtful expressions said
Weaving with tender thread
Replace evil with good
Words plain and understood
Honest lyrics in song
Carried through all day long
Life unfolds from our text
Watchful where words go next
This poem was written several days before January 6, 2021. Its intention was to praise and encourage the positive power of words. The events taking place in Washington, DC on January 6 showed the negative power of words. How will our future words speak?
