Into The Sunshine

Life Emerges Anew

Watch more sunrises, and listen to the birds sing.
Enjoy the smell of the flowers, and the sight of the birds wings.

Watch the children play, and listen to their joyful laughter.
Enjoy the calm of the ocean waves, and wonder what they are flowing after.

Watch the trees swaying peacefully, and the leaves dancing like a quartet.
Enjoy all of these and much, much more until the final sunset.

Count your garden by the flowers,
Never by the leaves that fall.
Count your days by golden hours,
Don't remember clouds at all.
Count your nights by stars, not tears.
Count your blessings, not your sorrows.
Count your age by friends, not years.

Inspiration

How far you go in life depends on
you being tender with the young,
compassionate with the aged,
sympathetic with the striving
and tolerant of the weak and the
strong. Because someday in
life, you will have been all of these.

George Washington Carver

Leaving... A Man

I finally took the journey
And passed into the light
Made it through the shadows
Sleeping through the night

I finally left my childhood
And embarked on such a trail
Made the best of this situation
And found I could prevail

Leaving home and running
Taking strides anew
Making home a different place
Seeing with a different view

Settling for less than comfort
Not having the time for care
Learned to love to be alone
When before I'd never dare

I somehow feel this place in sunshine
Is more than just the sky
Is more than just geography
It is the wings I fly

The people they have blessed me
In a way they'll never know
They helped me lose my boyhood
With every smile that they bestow

For I am not leaving this place in sorrow
Or merely because I can
I am leaving this place affected
I am leaving this place a man
