"The optimist" Day 22 of 365 positive poems I have everything I need As I am free I am watered I am knowledge I am fathered by a God Nature taken care of I am light and love A written prescription for joy I am this drug A hug on a cold day A cuddle in a bubble of true commitment Upliftment when down The sound of still rivers This smile that delivers yours A pure exchange of energy Endlessly I am gladness An antonym for savage A seventh day Sabbath from sadness Peace practiced and performed The calm when the wind sings it's hallelujah I no longer stupor or stupid I am wisdom in movement Beauty zoomed in and negativity cropped An African antique box brought down through generations Hatred lost Future found Faith and belief bound in this crown I wear Here where what appears is everything that I speak Truth wrapped in a loop of allure I am all of this and more In the midst of all things great that exist I now rule The eternal optimist
