Look For Light

A robin landed on a thin branch Watching everything around It flew leaving the tree swaying Without ever making a sound The calm part of day is here Green buds are now arriving Even with so much gray sky And tough things, we are surviving Each peaceful moment is precious in this craziness As bad news flows like a raging river I hold onto peace where ever it is found To calm my mind and stop the shiver Evil is taking the reins like never before A whirlwind is happening every day Breathe, pray, stay strong all you can Look for light in the sky, smiles, all on your way In this light you will not be lost Discover simplicity and all it inspires Because there is much more to come And many things the soul requires Heidi Sands 5/3/22

my mom told me once, the only thing you need to worry about is taking your next breath, I've held this thought close ever since...

Your poem beautifully reflects the seemingly perpetual unrest in the world, that we must address with positivity where ever we can find it. Great message. :)Paulette
