“A Seafaring Tale”

A Seafaring Tale

Eye Of The Storm

The ship approaches
The eye of the storm
Captain spins the wheel
Sharply to port

The wind is howling
Ripping over the ship
As the Captain and crew
Try to give the storm the slip

Waves are getting higher
The sea salt so strong
As the ship continues to
Disappear into the throng

Belted and buffeted
The ship sails on
Prizing itself
From the battle, just won

The waters are calm now
Minds are at rest
As the ship won the battle
Of Mother Nature’s fine test!

Raise The Bar

Review your goals
Raise the bar
Look to the future
You’ll see from afar

Roll up those sleeves
Dig right in
Look at that dream
And start to begin

In no time at all
You’ll be on the road
Moving forward
Instead of being towed

That mental check-up
You gave to yourself
Was the key
To your self-help

Reward yourself
Along the way
The journey of growth
Is your payday!

Sit And Listen

Sit and listen
What do you hear?

I hear the sound
Of a New Year!

A New Year that brings
Promise, excitement and cheer

Opportunities abound
To all those who are near

It’s time to let go
Of all those fears

Work hard for your goals
Be sincere

Achieve your dreams
Make it your year!
