When threads of life's misfortune burdens you with stress in your day allow yourself to find a safe refuge where you can cast them all away Pretend you are a carefree dove soaring the sky on silvered wings then in your most beautiful voice take a deep breath and then sing Happiness need never be far away If you give yourself half a chance let trouble stop weighing you down Just turn on the music and dance Take a moment and close your eyes Be that dove at least once every day Journey to your private, special place where you can escape by flying away

should i be a dove or a dragon, cause there's always thunder here...doves are cool, can't even eat two grains of corn at once, but dragons, well i shouldn't say...excellent write Lin....this poem's got such great hope, it's moving and has captured my heart....though i pray it leaves it soon, i'm upstairs, capturing and dragging my heart might make me fall lol

No dragons here, Sage. They breathe fire. I'm a peaceful sort. It's what God expects of me and despite what some say about me in PS, I'm really humble. Thanks for another nice comment.
