Alone in a Crowd
Alone in a crowd of strangers
Spinning, twirling where to turn
Adrift in a sea of faces
Searching, looking whom I know
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Not one of the many colors,
Sizes, genders speak to me
For each in a hurry sprinting
Dragging luggage to the gate
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Sardines, we are packed in cramped seats
Harnessed, belted, buckled tight
To wait for the looming take-off
Destination, journey’s end
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Alone in a crowd of strangers
Chaos, turmoil all around
Retreating to my quiet place
Tuning in to higher self
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Adrift in a sea of faces
Spinning, twirling where to turn
Find harmony, peace and love thoughts
Inside you and nowhere else.
Gratitude Attitude
From where I sit there are complaints
Of lack, short-falls, life failed.
I feel the pity for myself
For no one else would care.
I cry the tears and lick my wounds
Feel justified, I moan,
Alone, poor me, I dwell depressed.
No joy lives in my heart.
Rejoice, my spirit screams within
Take note of all there is!
Behold, rise up and see the light
For gifts abound around!
Enjoy the gifts each day bestows
Surprises are in store
Be open spirit to receive
The wonders of this world
Change attitude with gratitude
Your heart will overflow
You’ll feel the love, support surround
And know you’re not alone
