Positive Thinking

I could see, 
Amidst the shadows swimming in our murky waters
The many different forms of goodness
That humanity could adorn itself of
These took the names of values, of good habits,
Of good intentions and of meritorious acts
So much that I chose to focus my attention solely on these
Stubbornly refusing to believe that shadows
Could someday
Win and take over the world!

And lifting up my little finger,
I imbibed myself of this goodness 
That this world had to offer
Hoping,
Someday, to share it with the rest of the humans
So as to make them believe
In the positive notes that this world could vibe with!
