Be your favorite cheerleader daily
And who are you cheering?
Why you, you, you
And why do you do it?
Who would benefit better?
Say really good things about your hair and your sweater
Here is a mirror exercise to get you started
Remember, only positivity, so you can be kind-hearted
Hello gorgeous, you say to your reflection
She will smile and giggle, an amazing confection
You are brilliant! You say, with a hip hip hooray
Toss some streamers in the air, dance in some way
Celebrate you
You are your own best ME ever!
To do this daily is wise, smart and clever

Let's try to focus on the good. And have hope and faith in our miracles and magic.
This doesn't mean we're not struggling.
But we have to try and lift our souls because we deserve better.
Blessings, love and light.
Be a cheerleader for light
By Michelle Morris

Find a light in your darkness
Find a light and a little joy
Let it expand and grow wings
Let it fly free and heal your soul
It doesn't mean that we're not struggling
It doesn't matter what others say
Do a happy dance and see unicorns
Appreciate the rainbows and the rain
For every day we have a choice to make
We can try to lift our souls and hearts
We can use our voices for good and light
To show the world we all deserve better starts
Find a light in your darkness
Be the light and glow and shine brightly, always
Ignite the universe's blessings for all
Be a cheerleader for light all of your days

Oh, the 1990's,
songs by Seattle grunge,
and boy band's romanticism.
Daughter was a cheerleader beauty,
blonde effervescence.
Petite strength,
with her smile of enthusiasm,
tossed up in adolescent flight..
Friday night varsity football games,
roaring bonfire for the Homecoming
in October's night of a crisp chill.
High school boyfriend faded into
nostalgia's mist of memories.
Twenty-four years have passed,
a Mom in her forties,
my grandchildren her joy.
Two decades of life's rewards,
some sorrow.
Alma mater moments-
those times are reborn,
verve. ~

I heard your encouragement so many times,
worded ten million
different ways
that I forgot to listen for it anymore.
Your love never came lightly,
never with levity but rather cast echoes when it left the horizon.
Sometimes it hurt on purpose,
Just so you knew how severely you could affect.
You forgot to listen too.
I have been brave enough to hold the gaze of a barrel
that had a recent, accurate and deadly history.
I scheduled having my first child completely alone.
I am not brave without you.
You have had more purpose than you ever realized.
I wish I could tell you all about it today.
You would tell me to hold my head high.
Wouldn't you?
Your tall tales were magical to me.
I was silly to always believe you.
You needed someone to resound what you wished to be true.
To make it all sound less tragic.
Bye momma

I am a cheerleader for life
For living breathing enthusiastic loving
For saying hello to strangers
For meeting new ideas with a zing and a sizzle
For jumping around whirling

Hey St. Nick! You’re my pick for cheerleader of the year.
Your neat little trick, where down the chimney you slip.
Way cooler than doing the straddle splits.
Flying in a sleigh, with Rudolph leading the way.
Beats any mount or pyramid display.
Stuffing stockings with toys, for good girls and boys.
A much better deal than any cartwheel.
A back spring is a really neat thing.
But a little round belly shaking like a bowl full of jelly,
Now that’s a move above and who doesn’t love,
A right jolly old elf.
Yelling, “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight!”

A cheering squad in Utah,
At a high school, did include
A member with Down Syndrome
With a bubbly attitude.
She worked extra hard at practice
And was liked by all who cheered,
But when she received her yearbook,
Her good humor disappeared.
For the cheerleaders were pictured,
Photogenic, they were, too,
Though one member was excluded
And I’ll give you one guess who.
Seems the cameraman requested
Double seatings for the pose -
One with everyone, another…
Well, you know the way it goes.
So the one that made the yearbook
Was the photo incomplete
And it made my blood just boil
To imagine that defeat.
Though apologies were given
And accepted by the teen,
We should all join in to shout
That stunt was M-E-A-N mean!

A crowd-pleasing, cheerleading, stunt building,
Short-skirt wearin', toe touching, hand-clapping, big smilin'
Kick @$$ Cheer Leader!
A happiness breeder
Tried out but it was dangerous my physique was too beguiling

October game
America’s football
An extension of cheerleaders
Happily, gleefully thrown into air
Captivating the crowd’s magic
These fluttering streamers
Landing in piles

sweet cheerleader
with the open mind,
i was wondering if
you would like to go
to the park with me
after practice
i admit that i was
flirting with you
earlier and that i
was checking out
your legs, your thighs,
and your perky behind
during lunch
yes, i am a typical male,
but that does not mean
that i am disrespectful,
chauvinistic, or demeaning
i just would like to get to know
the person behind the persona
i would really like to get to know
....YOU....
that is....if it is alright with you....
you do not have to give me an answer
right now....in fact, you do not even have
to answer at all
just you giving me the time just to say these
mere words to you....is the cherry on top of
the vanilla fudge sundae of my day....thank
you....and have a blessed weekend

Sometimes God will send people in your way
to either perk you up
wake you up from your stupor
or just pull you in the mood
My supervisor was just walking by
and all he said was "jingle bell, jingle bell"
and I felt myself lift up and finally in the Christmas mood
Did someone ever perk you up
do something for you that you feel like
you have been touched by God himself?
That is what it feels like
All he did was singing
- the innocent act of kindness
Bet he doesn't even know
Yet God used it to reach deep down in someone's inside
and made a permanent mark
Yes God will do that
So just live
Carry on
And be innocent as you can be
And be unreserved as you can let
Don't hold back
Let it all out
Be a cheerleader of the world
Be the ambassador
Be the magic keeper
Life is all - for you and for me
Let your spirit shine
Will you?

All your fears
Trembling thoughts
Add to uneasiness
You can't see beyond this moment
You can't grasp the intent
The impact it might have
You have not walked this road before
The cobble stones might hinder you
You were chosen for today
Way before you could fathom your will
It's in the baby steps
In the calmness of your core
Draw your strength from your soul
The silent yet loudest cheerleader
Of them all
