Raise The Bar

by communicatingcreatively, posted in Poetry

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

by communicatingcreatively, posted in Poetry

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!

And I Know That I Will

by communicatingcreatively, posted in Poetry

I sit and I watch the day unfolding
Shadows creep in, shadows creep out
The Sun dances across the sky
Partnering with clouds as we watch the day go by

As I sit and I wonder
What the day will bring
With each passing hour
No more than a shower

The day goes on
The light changes hourly
I sit and watch the day unfold
A promise of more I surely am told

I dream and I dream
I watch and I listen
The day speaks to me
And I listen intently

The message is clear
How could I have not seen it?
It was there all along
Was my mind distracted?

I begin to understand
And try not to question
What life was telling me
Again and again

All along it has been saying
What I should do
Had I have not been listening
I would’ve missed it today too

The Sun it goes down
Beyond the hill
The path is clear
And I know that I will

This is the first poem I had ever written & was originally published on my ‘Observations & Other Writings’ blog in August 2013.
