Now No Fear

Driven by fear of yesteryear
Forgetting we lived through
Hardships, disasters, calamity
Nature brought on queue 

Though those times were difficult
Hope we had reserved
Light had beamed from joy we dreamed
Blessings had been served

Count your blessings
Say thank you for all the greater sent
To be happier in life;
Decreasing discontent 

Build up by leaving be 
All we can’t control
To shape ones bed and rest ones head
To nurture deep ones soul

Will only form us stronger
Throughout such filth and bile
Returning to the now of new
Solely is worthwhile

For great is life in this space
On this world-Respect
When living in the moment
We reaped rewards correct.
