A Positive Message !

Don't speak to me of your half empty glass,
As you wallow in a pity display,
Mine is half full, and bold as brass,
I savour it's mature bouquet.

If you confer with me don't mention your woes,
Or the sorrow of your pain and distress,
For I emerged from the school of hard blows,
So from negative vibes I digress.

If you think from this, that I don't care,
Then you have judged me wrong,
Only positive energy with you I'll share,
To help your mind grow strong.

Negative thoughts like Cancer will spread,
And poison a healthy mind,
Contaminating slowly inside you're head,
Seeking the positives to grind.

If you enjoy sad tales to compile,
I'll reluctantly spin you mine,
You may wonder then why I carry a smile,
And intensely dislike to whine.

Let the positives in !...and free your ghost,
Exude your strength and class,
Then as you leave, I'll extend you a toast,
With a half full parting glass !

I feel like I am lost Mick. More like the disowning of pain and sorrows that leads to a strong head on facing our demons.

I do agree, though, dwelling in a very negative energy only deteriorates a will to fight.

But I do need to break down once in a while, if only to rise back up.

thanks for the share..

Wow I need to read this morning noon and night
I was about to write a poem of my tales of woe
Something and suddenly I changed my mind then was just leafing through the link and found this.
So very true to dump our tales of woe on others.
We all are hurting to varying degrees
writing thoughts of negativity is not going to help.
To fight and stand another day to prove there has to be
a better way. Very good poem and profound thoughts handshake

Hi Mick,

I agree totally with the sentiments of your poem. If you are alive and healthy and have a reasonable brain on your shoulders, then it is my belief you can make things happen. So enjoy life, don't whine about it. Fantastically expressed. wine wine
