Heads Up

Sometimes I sit and wonder if we got it all wrong Staring down at our feet as the world spins along Could pick up our head to start seeing in a new light Realizing beauty is abound if we adjust our eyesight Opportunities unlock when we zoom out our focus Things we missed before are now suddenly noticed Might even look up to see the sun shining brighter Allowing us to move through our days a little lighter

Dear Mike, your lovely verse shines with truth, wisdom and optimism for what can be “if we adjust our eyesight” and mindset. Thoughtful and thought-provoking. Congratulations for your wonderful win in Brian’s contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
