Pollyanna Moment
I wake at the ascension of golden dawn to meditate on the morning's mystique To the sandy shoreline, I'm always drawn as the sun climbs over the mountain peak How calm the lake's water without a ripple Like a sheet of glass; is my mirrored reflection I seek its tranquil comfort as a babe, a nipple To me, this is a moment...

Optimism of a Pollyanna
There is one thing around every corner I turn.. Over every brick in the road to success, and painting a veil on every aspiration I have for the future... One thing that holds opinions, and forms a web of power in the attempt to tell me I will fail... Trying it's best to crush my dreams, and...
