Uplifting

exalt and praise 
for these fine days- 
            live with passion and atonement,
            for each sanctified moment. 

lift up your soul 
until your essence 
is whole-
boost and cheer
without anguish
nor fear. 

for each minute 
you're alive, you
make a decision-
so make it with
faith and elating
precision. 

let's improve our
darkness and shine 
in the light,
so that our blindfolded
eyes can see our
deserved sight. 

pick up those moods
that are lowered 
with woe-
and with each breath
find is easy to finally
let go.

exhilarate-
encouragement is the key,
concentrate-
on uplifting you and me.
