Learning Change

"Learning Change"
(poem written 12/18/2024
by Michelle L. LeBlanc)

There's beauty all around 
Take a look and see 
The beauty is also within 
You must choose to believe 

Don't go by how you feel 
Feelings often change 
Pay attention to your thoughts 
And what to rearrange

If we change our thoughts 
We will change our words 
This will change how we feel 
And we can soar like the birds 

But this is not as simple 
As merely words can say 
It takes a lot of practice 
To change the mindset everyday 

But be patient with yourself 
Understand that it takes time 
Depends how much is in there 
That needs to be realigned

You're stronger than you think 
More beautiful than you believe 
You have the courage inside 
Start believing and you'll see! 

Know, we must make a choice 
Each and every day 
Not just when we feel good 
But when we feel the disarray 

Remember you got this
Don't give up on your life 
Don't let your feelings run you
Keep your goals firm in sight!
