Drip a River

They all wished for sun shine
For clear bluebird skies.
Each one complaining that their life is the worst.
But from what I learned you make you life suck
When all you do is complain and believe in negativity.
I chose to dance in the rain and let it soak me to the bone,
I chose to let myself smile and feel the love around me.
So instead of waiting for the sun, dance in the rain,
Let it fall onto your cheeks, lips and hair.
Allow it to refresh you for the life ahead.
Then as they all wait for sunshine,
Accept the rain and dance with a smile,
Until you are wet enough to drip a river.

    bloom

    on my bedroom dresser,
    demise blooms from cracked petals and dried stems,
    rubbing against a dusty glass vase. 

    each flower once flourishing and loved--
    only to be hung upside down,
    and left to die in a dank closet.

    turn my swag on

    Live, Laugh, Love.
    The beautiful flowers of earth sprout from the seeded soil,
    The trees blow back and fourth with the rythem of the wind,
    the ocean swells into giant pool along the rock cliffs of life,
