Horizons

When dark clouds gather to paint destiny's path Leaving my horizon filled with gloom I will look for the silver lining as the storm clears As I paint my horizon with brushstrokes of cheer Horizons can change with each passing day Those bleak outlooks can no longer stay There is a bright dawn that will soon appear The darkness will vanish along with the fear Choices made can determine our fate And from these, horizons emanate Choose horizons that are bright and clear And paint your destiny with brushstrokes of cheer - 9-5-18

Wonderful message in your poem, Joseph. I enjoyed this. I noticed you were using rhyming couplets except in the very beginning. Was that your intention?
