Open the Curtains

Open the curtains

  I opened the curtains this morning,
  And start a brand new day,
  Hope today will bring happiness for everyone,
  And joy will come our way.
  Spend time with loved ones,
  Create some happy memories that say,
  You are so very special,
  And loved in every way.
  If family or friends are miles away,
  Send a message, make them smile,
  And wish them a good day.
  Before you go to bed at night,
  And close the curtains to,
  Make sure you let your loved ones know,
  They mean the world to you!!!

A lovely poem, I always say that to my friend, never let the sun go down angry or on a bad word tomorrow msy he to late to say sorry or to say you care. It's sad when our family members don't stay in touch. I don't have contact numbers for my older 2 boys or for any of my sister's. I love all my family no matter what, And if one day my son's knock on the door of course I'd let th in. They just do their own thing these days.

Simple things most of us have it in our power to do and should do that enhance the chances of outcomes that make living worthwhile. With clever wording added the essence of what poetry can contribute to motivating us to act accordingly. Also motivates other poets and those who have aspirations to join in the fun. Hope friends and family appreciate your talent. Best regards David in NZ
