The Power Of You

Prompt from Sunday's Whirligig

When the sorrow drains you
more than you can bear
tug on those happiness jeans
and leave behind despair

Greet the day 
with swagger
a mysterious shining 
from with in

There is a miracle
we call belief and dreams
that save us over again
trade darkness for Son-beams

Lift not your wrists
except for expulsion
of no's and can not do's
reach deep with in yourself
FIND THE POWER OF YOU!

I really liked this "feel good" creation.
It is amazing the "flow" you find with someone else's prompt . . .
Well done my friend . . .

Well Done and most representative of the past weeks of cleaning and throwing out load after load, cutting down broken trees and having all taken away. A time to empty and clean and a start of a new month. Aaaah, finally, some time to breathe and take it easy. Hope you are feeling better. lol to you all.
