How We Choose To Think

Birds are singing welcoming the sun As woodpecker hammer on tall trees In this bright day, wildlife is having fun Miles of clear skies spread far as one sees Lift your hands like wings of a bird in flight Reach for everything you want today to be Some things may not be in the near sight But our choices with time, allow us to see What is now far, will be like what is near Before us soon, as our eyes do blink What we find in the distance out there Will come from how we choose to think Heidi Sands 6/2/17
