Those Kind of Days

In those kind of days That do not feel quite right Feelings swirl in empty ways A heart holds onto the night Rise up my friend, take a look Let the air to the skies, clear your mind Move forward like the gurgling brook To see what you will find The water sparkling in front of you Meanders to lead the way for now Let go, a walk will bring you through To the other side somehow In those kind of days That can be so difficult to face When heaviness lingers to stay With longing to be some other place Take a listen to the music Write yourself a pleasant note A reminder to read and to pick A positive affirmation to float In your mind or written on a stone To know, to have and to hold My friend, you are not alone You can let the day unfold 6/18/17 **Entry for the Creative Collective Anthology Series Contest sponsored by Geraldine Taylor
